We've been done up like kippers!
you didn't live near Ruttlidge (or how ever you spell his name, what's wrong with easy to spell names like Dame and Bob?) did you?

I can't see that exhaust being illegal, I have a side exit on my T4 van and I've had no problems with the MOT. It may not be particularly quiet (good job too) but unless it's a real screamer, it should be ok.

I'm not really a huge fan of Tigras, but this project could change my opinion.
bookmarked!

but being dragged out to gorp at a tuned up G-Wagon with Mercedes OM606 may have slightly delayed progress pictures or it never happened......

I take it that this is the self same Scimitar from the (late lamented) PPC forum?
If so, it's good to see it's still in one piece.

I'm moving to Lincoln in the new year, so I'd be more than happy to come along to a meet (to meet new people) and buy some tea and cake/coffee and a bacon butty. '96 T4 camper retro enough? it's that or a 2002 Caddy (or a 2013 Yaris.....)

you'll probably find that if you change the clocks to a KMH set, the mileage will show wahtever the new set of clocks showed when they were removed from their original home. the Mileage of a vehicle is stored in the clocks, not anywhere else in the car.

PRICE DROP!! £50 a set, or make me a silly offer...... I’m going to be moving house (to Lincoln, so I’ll be annoying people from Lincs VAG next year), so I need to clean out some spare parts to keep the removals cost down. Both sets will be for collection from Aylesbury in the County of Buckinghamshire (or Princes Risborough during the week daytime possibly too). To wit, I have two spare sets of alloy wheels. Set 1: 16 x 6.5J ET45 Rover alloys with the centre bore eased so that they fit a VAG hub (only 1mm difference so done with a flap wheel on a drill). The tyres are purely ornamental and they could really do with a refurb as the finish has bubbled somewhat, there is also the odd pothole ding on the inner rim. They were fitted on my van with spacers so not a direct fit, the spacers are staying with me as I need them for my Renault steels. I’ll take some up to date photos and post them up, but here’s one to whet your whistle £50 quid collected. Set 2: 17x7J ET40 5 spoke wheels. These where on my van when I bought it and are fitted with 205/40/17 tyres (speedo spot on with this combo). The rims are silver with a few dents but should clean up fairly well, the paint on the centres could again do with a refurb or touch up. The tyres are fubar (down to the canvas on one of them) so will need replacing. Direct fit on a mk2 Caddy if you don’t have coilovers, only needed a 5mm spacer to clear if you do. They are multifit with the other set of holes being 4x108. £50 quid collected. Cheers Pete
