  1. We have a stand booked at the Supercar Fest - The Runway event on the 19th May 2024.

  2. Merry belated Christmas all!
  3. I have wired in my HIDs behind the nose panel so that no wiring can be seen. The MOT tester said if he cant see anything after market, then he cant fail it. Also; there are various stories of people on here taking bits of the MOT rules and the Nissan brochure to their MOT to show that the car was sold originally with HIDs. That can also be worth a try.
  4. That normally means the battery doesnt have enough umpff to turn the starter motor. Try and new battery or better, jump it off another car.
  5. I think I would have taken the A5, they look a look better than that merc in my humble, blind opinion! 😅
  6. Did BMW really give you a merc as a courtesy car?!
  7. Happy birthday gary!

  20. Before my zed I had a mk1 1.6L in white. Loved it to pieces, but sold it to get my first zed. My dad bought a dark blue 1.8L mk2.5 (52 plate) about 8 years ago and always said he would leave it to me in his will. He rang me up at the start of the year and asked if I wanted it early because he had driven it for nearly 18 months. So I keep it and use it as much as possible. Its completely stock and has only done 60k miles. I love how they handle and with the 1.8L they are a bit quicker. I want to get a hardtop for it and then maybe look at an air filter, stainless exhaust, it needs a bit of welding on the sills, but its only just starting to show so I think Ive caught it early enough.
  21. I use this stuff: https://www.hammerite.co.uk/product/kurust/ I wire brush all the rusty areas, get all the flakey bits off, then I paint it on, it chemically kills all rust and turns black. You can then paint over the top or stick a protector covering over it. Its a messy job, but well worth it and you know all the rust has been chemically killed before you go over it with a coating. I did the underneath of the MX5 last month, took me about 3 hours. It then took about 5 days for it to wash off my skin! 😄
