Brian,

+1 for Bill at Kent Gearboxes.

Has rebuilt both my 265s and also a couple Lsd. Very good pricing as well.

Regards

Dave

Hi Brian, Glad too see that you have started the process of putting it all back together. I`m nearing completion of a full rebuild on my track car in the FINA livery. Give me a call sometime and lets meet up as may be able to arrange a visit to a mate of mine, to see the ex Bristow Helicopters UK. c...

Looking good Mark.

Keep it red +1. Its a lot of work to change the whole colour. Glad to hear you are enjoying it. Just need to pull my finger out and put mine back togather. Would be good to get them both out togather.

Cheers
Dave

Having both a M3 and a C2 2.7 its the M3 for me. The C2 is a bit of a boat in the handling department to the M3, but do agree on a long motorway trip the C2 comes into its own. Overall M 3 for me. End of day just, each to his own.

Cheers
Dave

Hi Pukhar

Have sent a pm regarding some decals for my C2.

Cheers

Dave

I know some folk won't like the mods but it gets used most days and I love the thing. 8) Mark, They are adictive when driven as they should. Mine is in total bits at the moment undergoing a complete rebuild, back to bare metal and seam welding everywhere. Have changed to a non sunroof roof skin and...

Save - Nothing major a mig can`t sort out.

Sad for all families involved. Its always the innocent ones that end up dead.

You undertake these stunts on a public you get what you deserve.

Know what you mean. Best weather for 5 years so the only aspect they could not control was the only improvement. The new RWYB classes are absolute shite, only suite the modern cars and all the classics are ignored. Suppose because the sponsors won`t be able to make any money "Mapping them Bruv". Spo...

I will be going up early on Sunday morning but will be towing the M2 on the trailer so maybe a bit slow for a convoy.
Will most likely meet up with a BM powered Herald along the way.
Still two early in the week for final arrangements as yet.

Cheers,

Dave

Bexley Motor Works / BmSport have a 4 wheel alignment machine and located in LION ROAD, Bexleyheath.
They are use to setting up M3s both for Road and Track and also do corner weighting if have adjustable.

Dave

Just been looking at the new classes for this years show, and if you don`t have a turbo , nitrous, both and you have a NA car your going nowhere. I think all NA cars are severely disadvantaged and is compounded if you are in a E numbers car. What`s the view, will this improve the show or finally kil...

Looks stunning Pukhar. Need to get mine out and back on the road.

Enjoy, and no stripes gives a super clean look.

Far from it. Still in fine fettle.

[quote="ross_jsy"]Why would you need to justify why you don't use it? Surely the fact it's a 20+ year old car is reason enough?[/quote

Can`t say at the moment due to an insurance claim, but will elaborate once all over so can share the unfortunate expirence with others.

Cheers Simon and others for the replies.

Would a statement saying that they are very exclusive and quite rare these days, and an appreciating classic, be a true reflection.

Cheers,

Hi Guys, May have been discussed before, but just trying to quickly find out how many genuine C2 2.7 were produced in the UK and if we know how many are still on the road / registered. I have no 0312, and need to justify ( Insurance issue ) why I would not use this as a daily. I currently only do ma...

Yes, no worries.

Cheers,

I`m up for a run round Coombe again if any spaces left. Have sent a mail anyway.

Will either be in the E30M3 track car if rebuild completed in time or the will be the trusty M2 ( 2002 / S14 )

Should be a great day.

Cheers,

Dave

Mark,

Go with Emerald when you decide to do it.

Why not enjoy the car as is for now ?

Going to Brands in the M2 Friday to get some motivation to get the M3 done.

Cheers

Dave

Mark,

Drop a S14 in it. Youve been in one that goes,

so why settle for less.

Cheers,

Dave

Not bad for a pensioner Dave

Rav,

You are only as old as you act.

I dont have any vids of the 1602 but it was epic

Thanks Guys.

Had a load of fun on the way home as well.

cheers,

Dave

Nice Pic of my 1602. Managed a PB of 14.087 on one of my 30+ runs.

Need to break into the 13s next year.

Cheers,

Dave

Turk, Never start a S14 run it for only a few minutes and switch it off, if running a standard oem ECU, as you will battle to restart it untill it is warm. It floods itself, and the only way to restart is a fresh set of plugs, or leave it for a long while for the fuel to evaporate. Best to keep a sp...

Its easy to split the cars as M or nots as if it don`t have an "S" engine that it not a full "M" worthy of the badge. Simples. And that applies to new cars and not engine swops. Showing your logbook to obtain replacement badges has been in place for years, and so it should be. Too many wannabee`s. j...

Count me in

cheers
