Re: Chinese-era TF Engine Numbers

My 2010 135
VIN; SDPRDHBKC8D000773
ENGINE; 18N4S2*8000463* note * is a star symbol and the S is definitely a S and not a 5.
Both the numbers are the actual numbers on the car.
The numbers on the V5 are the same except the engine is shown as 18N4S28000463 (no stars)

Re: 1.5mm Wheel Spacers

The other way is to fit large washers - preferably stainless steel to avoid corrosion, over each of the wheel studs, just make sure they are all the same thickness. The shape of the wheel interface more or less suits this technique.

Re: 17th July - Run To The Surf - Run down to Cornwall

A postponement till Sept 25, with tomorrow cancelled, sounds a good idea to me in view of the weather.

Re: Age is just a number...or is it?

I passed my driving test 51 years ago. Lost count of the cars I have had, the first were pre ww2. Have three cars at the moment, one small petrol for local run-around, one diesel for long haul motor-way runs and one to enjoy.

Re: Those MGF drivers are a strange bunch!!

Hi Trainer.
I have one you can have, you will need to paint it - an aerosol can will do it, and get some nuts, screws and washers to fix it on. I am along the Dartmouth Road just before Churston Library, you should find me in the phone book.
