Found a leak in the r26 ac system, and I've got a new ac switch and new seals for the pipe in that area. Does anyone know if it's just a question of undoing the pipe, replace seal, get ac regassed?
I've got a crap set of Xenons that you could have for £50 possibly. They work perfectly, but need polishing as they are scratched/uv damaged. But someone else said they wanted them, I'll check if they still do
The legality is questionable, could certainly be an mot fail, as you don't have washers or self levelling. Personally I wouldn't bother. Cheap hid kits aren't brilliantly made, risk of them going up in smoke puts me off these days.
And don't fit a hid kit into standard headlights. They aren't...
Torque limiting is the future. Ferrari are using it as a way to replicate NA feel, with the inherent mpg benefits of modern turbos. If it helps the longevity of the car, I don't see a problem?
I normally get 340 miles from the 172 before the light comes on. That's mixed driving, motorway at 80. No doubt the st is a bit more economical than a 1*2 (fuel wise!)
Not disputing that, would be interested to know how it compares to the calculated. Ran a 1.8tdci for a while. Trip read 70mpg, but was only actually doing 57mpg. If it's actually 45mpg+ that's superb.
Is this the one you've looked at?

I'd rather have good bodywork and belts need doing. That way you can get the belts done somewhere reputable and know it's been done correctly. But tbh, it's a £2-3k 10yr old car. There will be some issue's.
