I have decided to break my 'spare car'.

Most parts are available, altho' some have been requested.

The car is not at my house, so I will be going to get some parts from it on Saturday, weather permitting.

So, any requests for parts let me know by Friday. I have pm'd those of you that have already asked for spares.

Can't guarantee a response before Friday as I am working away at the moment, but I will get back to you.

Is it possible for me to buy the rims?

I only have 1 setup, and here every car needs 2 (for the winter tires).

I don't know what it would cost to ship them to Sweden, but I have not found any "other" rims that i like.

Hi Tony.

Just to remind you that I am on yellow alert.:cool:

If you sell the rims to Sonar there must be some twenty nuts left...:D

Getting more serious but with litle hope because everybody is/was after it: the power windows button assembly on the drivers side.:p

Mine is still working but will soon go as one of the buttons (front passenger window) is already failing whenever I pull it and misses the contact if I don't twist it.:(

Cheers.

I need the wheel for the time being, I'm afraid. However, when I come to get rid of it, I'll let everyone know and then wheels and nuts will be your joint first call!

As to the window switches, I have one enquiry already, but I know that one of the switches at least has broken. I'll let you know if the first person doesn't want the pack.

Thanks Tony,

I fully understand the current unavailabilty of the wheels, of course.:)

Regarding the button assembly it will all depend on which one is damaged.
Also it will be probably possible to swap parts between all the positions and so I could be ok with that one.:cool:

Let me know when the other person decides.

Keep in touch.

Hi Tony

I have been out of the loop for ages, good to see lots of names I remember. Can you get back to me regarding what spares are available. Look forward to hearing from you.

All the best

Hey Graham

Long time no see.:)

How are Ann and Sam doing?

Did you bolt on that dirty great supercharger yet?:)

Someone in the states is planning on doing it, but no progress report there yet.

As Andy says, what progress?

Tony,

I'm looking at buying a car whose panels at the rear of the front seats are in poor condition - are the ones on the car you are breaking still available, and if so, are they in good nick? The car I am after has a standard UK spec interior.

cheers

Hi there - I'm afraid that they have already gone.

You may want to try Simpson Bros - they have one being broken, but don't know what nick its in and what's left. 01759 372727.

Good luck with the purchase! They're great cars u- until something big goes wrong, then v frustrating!
