Hello, well introductions first I have a R reg VVC, In Ham green..Found in a barn with small damage and 68K on the clock.. I bought it from the chap in June 21 with MOT etc..
So April 22, MOT CAT failure ..Hmm...along with rotten wish bones(they has been welded.. .Argh) and a very moth eaten Gearbox mount! All changed with a BM cat new down pipe and SS silencer! Off we go.. 4 new recon gassed spheres fitted in Swadlincote...multo comfort once again..and a compliment on her underneath..Having sat for at least 10 years in a dry barn, the TIn Worm was not at all active and is totally original below!! Nice...Along wlth tidy subbfames etc...
February 23..failed on CAT again.. now fitted CAT from MGOC Spares, but will put the old CAT on, then check if there is a problem causing the CATs to die..
So I wonder who can check that all is well, No smoke, nice clean plugs, so no obvious over fueling.. Bad CAT or what else I wonder?
Anyway another summer of entertainment awaits..
But what strikes me(I am sure said before) is what a staggeringly good little car from an almost bankrupt parts bin.. Sheer genius..and 25 years later, drives like a modern car!
Why can Britain not do this anymore?
