Why would it whine like that? I'll go back out and have a better listen!

They aren't electric so it can't be that.

You can hear it with the ignition on, it isn't the fuel pump. Sounds to be low in the engine bay. It doesn't go away when the engine is started. You can also hear it inside the cabin. It must be electrical.

Yes, but i want to see a 1 day old belt rather than a 6 year old one.

Literally yesterday.

Just bought a 172 from a garage. As part of the sale they did the cambelt. I want to check that they have. Anyway I can have a look at it to see if its a new belt?

Death to the infidels et al.

Please explain that without alluding to the fact you have some sort of dented internet based pride.

You get stone 'pock' marks on the leading edge, you can buy a guard for it though. The rest of it is generally fine.

No, I'm giving my opion to the people asking about what kind of ones they should be looking at. If you have an inferiority complex about your Caterham then that's your issue don't let it cloud decent advice being given just because yours doesn't match the advice. You car is from the 70's...

How so mate? I've built 3 and driven god knows how many. Everyone has thier Rose tinted glasses on about thier first one. The truth is they have the same drag coefficient as a 1970's RangeRover, even more so with classic wings fitted. 0-60 will never be a problem, but once rolling drag is king...

Scuff master on the leather. Depo front indicators Then leave it alone.

Avoid Pinto engines and bike engines. Both have serious draw backs! You get good and bad versions of any 7 style cars. I've seen factory build caterham's that look like children have built them without the instructions! Then again i've seen Robin Hood's with a better fit and finish than more...

Will feel painfully slow without 160bhp+ when driving normally. From 50mph my mates 106 GTi was faster. If i were to build another one I'd have a nice 2.0 on bodies with about 220bhp.

I used my westie all winter. I didn't even have a roof... The windscreen never froze though.

7's are only fun with crap tyres on them.

Oh my days.

It doesn't stop it from been horrific.

My friends... Not sure on the bumper or the wheels. He wants to follow his own style though.

The Bilstens were OEM.

FML I've done 12k in 4 months in the TT averaging 28.

The brown saxo used to be my mates.....

Stick Rota's on it, you don't have to be anyones little b**ch boy on here.

Last night on kellythorpe round about following a black 206 ? I was in the wanky White mini.

My 3GS survived 42deg heat when I was working out in Greece. It was just hard to hold. Black FTW.
