So are people just getting campsite tickets or going for race tickets aswell? I quite fancy getting about abit more this year tbh. Got whole 24 hours to do so.

I'm guessing the solid bearings are pressed into the top mounts such as wheel bearings are? Be a right pain getting them out! Top ring would be simpleish to do though on it's own.

Reckon it would be an extensive job to change the colour by anodizing over again?

Would have problems with them sitting flat etc I guess. There kinda anodized atm! Have a nosey at mine next time I see you.

Be needing a brewery with the way some people drink!

+1000 to what everyone else has said LOL. Those seats yummy! Car as a whole would look better lowered abit, cant complain though.

How much Fred? Watch this; :)

No one understands this car till they hear that bong noise when you start it! (Hopefully that's still there)

Lovely picture of Tom there <3

It's not impossibly to drive at 17 mate. But you really really do have to bite the bullet in terms of insurance. I was working 35 hours a week while going to college for ~30 to save for my insurance renewal last year!

Not as far as I know, rears will just be fixed as there's no variation such as the track rod to ever put it out, except bending the mount I guess. Worth checking. If you do and it's out, double/triple check it by starting over and over to make sure and it's the same. Worth taking it to get...

Thing is if you wrap it, can always peel it off if you sell it onto another mk1'er in the future! Where as paint may limit the sale alittle more. Worth a thought!

ALL credit for that goes to Nige on Northloop, non of it is written by me! You'll be able to see if it's majorly out by doing that I guess. It's mentioned in that thread over there a buckled wheel could effect it aswell, worth a thought.

Pretty simple if you passed GCSE maths tbh. This is worth a read; http://z8.invisionfree.com/Northloop/index.php?showtopic=13449 (Sorry if you havent got an account, I could possibly quote the post?) :)

Quick search got me this; http://www.oppracing.com/opp_pages.php?page=carbon_fiber_101 :)

Can you not just check the alignment yourself first?

Care to explain what he does mean then?

Polyester also turns blue tinted and spider webs fairly easily iirc? Shame about the bonnet dude! Trumpets all cleaned up are lovely.

;) On a series note though, all that s**t in the back will reduce some of the noise atleast. Was fine last year in a 172 with a prospeed exhaust on. Not deadly silent but not ear bleeding! I know I'm going to take mine out to fit in all the bits and bobs, no other way!

Half air, half coke and fags. ;)

My experience exactly! 80% of the salesman I've met aren't the slightest interested in cars.

Couldn't say I could justify the best part of £500 for a snap on one unless it was being used professionally myself!

Saw the other monaco on standard 172 wheels all blocked in right in the middle of the carpark/paddock. Looked tidy! Good pics Riad, still to touch mine!

So you can't put an interior back in it if you come to sell?

The toe eye crew will be in force. ;) I don't bother simply because of the wheels being that way. They don't get any better when clean so I don't bother with the whole lot tbh. It needs hoovering more than anything! Roll on march/april I'll wack out the G220 and buy some decent wax ;)

Lol! Will get it sorted next week aswell. It's literaly book.. drive up with paperwork/documents and say hi right?

Anytime! :)

Hiaz, in on this!

I know this is a realllyy really x6 long shot but, Anyone concidered going to Nurburgring 24hr acouple of weeks after this aswell? Looks around the same price range etc as Le Mans.
