Thanks Nick.

Hi Ondrej and welcome.

or don't drive through deep water, the front of an F is boat shaped don't ya know.

.......... Over 7 years I have probably saved hundreds of pounds in fuel, let alone stress, bulb and headlight life. I would say go for it - after all you have upgraded just about everything else on it! ;o) How have you saved fuel? (I assume you're not talking about the saving from less demand on t...

Hi and welcome to the forum. You don't say which model you have, on early cars with a mechanical counter the digits can be adjusted but on later cars with the digital counter I don't think you can change the recorded mileage (although I guess if you had a brand new one you would be able to set the m...

I'm not sure how swapping the engine to the back would effect the suspension as it's linked front to rear.
The metro part does have a different part number and Rimmers have some for the bargain price of £167!
For the F they offer a different part which turns out to be the suplex system.

Thanks guys, I know about the interior light, have them on the F and both zeds.
The metro's mirrors came from my F when I went electric.
Unfortunatly it's a 1.1 so that's not much help.

Are there suspension parts that are worth saving.

We are about to scrap a Rover100, what parts are worth saving for our mk1 MGF?

I also have a CTEK.

Worth reporting to the boys in blue?

"Borrowed" the battery clamp so I could fit it on the ZR to get it through the MOT.

When it's running a lot but it spends more time broken

The belt in the storeroom isn't under tension so should last longer.

You could try http://www.thephonebook.bt.com/publisha ... h.publisha , there are 3 kettlety's listed for Bollington.

Hi and welcome.

Check out the DVLA website.
Do you have a receipt for the car.
Also the MOT is stored online now, the print out is only a record so it's easy to get a duplicate or just look online for the record.

I don't think oil temp is an OBD2 requirement and I defiantly don't have it on my ZS180 although that isn't MEMS3, it's Siemens 2000.

Connected the trickle charger, 6 hours later I found it wasn't actually connected!

There are kits available for refurbishing plastic headlights, and plenty of how-to's on the net.
