Still here, but the valvers don't get much of a look in these days, the Phase 1 has been on axle stands for a year or so now. I concentrate more on the diesels cos of the price of fuel but here not as much fun!

Apparently the two in Scotland still exist. Tim Leech was talking to the owner at the ICCCR.

Not sure why I'm spending time on here when I should be in the garage working on the Phase 1 but.... Oh yeah, it's freeeeeezinggg!!

The rear arch mounting Nuts don't really serve any purpose except to hold it in place on the construction line while the bonding sets. Have you ever tried removing a front or rear arch spat? Takes hours hacking away at the bonding!

In other word you'd be safe to find the threads off :wink:

I remember someone on here had C2 GT 16" alloys on a red valver. They're 6J and 27mm offset. The question is do these need a spacer to fit the BX which has offsets from 15mm (valver) - 25mm (standard disc steel)? Seen a set locally for £60 with half decent tyres which seems a bargain. If they d...

If you get Photoshop Express for your iPhone from the App Store you can edit your photos. It was free when I got it. Not sure about now

P2 front wings and bumper in Venetian Red

Just out of interest, does anybody by any chance have the above items for sale? My red valver had a shunt a couple of years or so before I bought it and was repaired on the cheap with very dodgy paint on the wings and a Phase 1 bumper which was a shame considering the mileage was in the mid 30k's at...
