Sorry mate I haven't had a 1.4 for ages, until recently, so I got rid of all the exhaust I had lying around.

Also out of interest, how much is the 343 going to be? . . . .
I've only got 1 spare prop, if I drive my 340 to RetroRides I'll be taking it with me in the boot just in case. If I make it back safely it'll be available.
What's the going rate for a prop these days?
As for the 343 I'd be looking for around £400 with all new brakes and a canny bit of work done to it. £500 if you want it with the Ally Cats. I'll start a thread on that in the next few days.

Cool, prop was a precaution just in case the custom one doesn't arrive in time. I'm told it will be done for Tuesday, so s'all good! £500 eh? If only I could find somewhere to store it!

It lives on the road at the moment, nicely waterproof and running lovely

Maybe Theo, they really suit the car though, but if whoever buys the car isn't too fussed by them you can have first dibs mate.

not being volvo don't bother me, just after something that isn't stupidly designed like the mk3 but is standard on the noise front. If he doesn't i'll get back to you

If John doesn't have floor trays or the early ARB, I do. Obviously I'm only going to stick my oar in if John *doesn't* have them...
343 sounds like a bargain.
Are the boxes from injection or carb cars, John? Ought to collect a couple of diffs and at least one spare box come turbo-time. The TT in the 343 is noisy, too, so should probably think about a spare. I have one spare, but that's clearly not enough...!
cheers
