Re: What did you do today?
Always one of these hovering on my radar, especially an early UK market one. They really have become a latter-day Spitfire or Spridget .
More than a passing interest here.....

My other half always wanted one British racing green with the tan leather interior, sadly 2 kids and 2 dogs means it's a bit impractical

They make a good second, third, or fourth car for all those occasions when you can leave your kids home to look after the dogs.DodgeRover wrote: ↑Fri Aug 28, 2020 1:45 pm My other half always wanted one British racing green with the tan leather interior, sadly 2 kids and 2 dogs means it's a bit impractical

Received the gearbox cooler for the Renault 5 the Google fu black belt Eddie H sourced.
Just need to get the right sized seals for this version and fit it.

I've tracked it a couple of times. I was out on Monday and really went for it, squealing, skidding round the corners. I got home and realised I'd melted the tyres. I was picking slugs of rubber off them. I must have been doing it right.

£160 plus going to need to lock the crank and pulleys. Basically quite a bit of a cambelt job.
This is what it sounded like before I got to this point
