    Classic car events in the South East

    Will you be going then Paul? It's not just the 5th June. It starts on the 1st and ends on the 6th. I'm already there now (Tuesday night), helping to set up (& setting up my trade-stand, to get the best spot before the big companies arrive on Wednesday!). Loads of stuff going on over the next...

    New Speedometer for imported Renault 4

    Is that all it failed the mot on? If you take it for an mot somewhere else, you'll have to pay the fee again plus you run the risk that it might fail on something that the first place missed or had a different opinion of. If I was in your shoes, (and if it had passed on everything else), I would...

    New Speedometer for imported Renault 4

    It is definitely not a legitimate reason to fail an mot. (The only relevance of a km speedo in an mot is that the Vosa computer system gives the mot tester the option of entering whether the odometer reads in miles or kilometers). Ask the tester to show you where in the tester's manual it shows...

    Sunday 5th June (or camp from Thurs 2nd): Chichester (Sussex coast).

    2CVGB's National meeting is being held in Chichester, on the south coast, this year. It's a 5 day event with lots going on including an invitation to other classic car clubs to attend and show their cars on the Sunday. Why not get some R4s together and join in with all the 2CVs, Dyanes, Amis...

    Electric Short Circuit

    The coil won't be the cause but could overheat as a result. It sounds like a circuit that is normally only fed via the ignition switch has been connected to anothet permanent positive supply, which is therefore also feeding other circuits on the switched side of the ignition switch. What...

    Advertising your car

    If anyone is selling any french classic, you can advertise it free on my website, with as long a description as you like and several photos. I'm not sure whether I'm allowed to put a link here but you can guess the website address from my forum name! (Wanted ads also free).

    Magnetic Sump plug?

    You were out when I came round yesterday Paul. I'll pop one round another time. Do the Corteco ones have any sort of lettering/marking on them? If not, I suspect that these might be the same.

    Magnetic Sump plug?

    They don't have any brand name on them but they do look identical to google images of corteco ones. I'll be visiting your neighbours (Prestige) in the morning, so I'll pop round with one for you to see.

    Magnetic Sump plug?

    I now have the sump-plugs with magnets, for £4.59 each, on my website. They are not as good quality as the £18.37 ones: It appears that the magnet is glued on rather than an interference fit into a recess, which is what I was expecting but they appear to be well-attached. I assume that if one...

    Magnetic Sump plug?

    I'll be putting in an order to one of my wholesalers on Monday morning, so I'll add 10 of them to the list. I'll sell them for £4.60 each (plus postage), so that they're 1/4 the price of those other ones. I should receive them on Wednesday (possibly Tuesday). I'll add them to my website shop...

    Magnetic Sump plug?

    £18.37 each seems a ridiculous price, even if they do look nice! I can do less shiney ones for a quarter of that price.
