Cool :). I'm not commenting in here to flog my wears, just to share my experiences.
I'm working on it, I need some data off you actually to finish some simulation work I have been playing with in the evenings.
That's a good offer from Steve. Can I have some tech support too? :o;)
It depends entirely on your project goals and your ability to maintain the car. You must also consider long term user issues such as reliability, running costs, durability etc.
ITBs sound great, but are high maintenance and...
I keep catching James trying to stick 'JMS BUS' on the bottom of the boot door in those chav halfords chrome letters. Pesky youths.

Oh yeah baby!; 1.9D V40 Sport (Apparently) Non concours edition ;)
Actually a Meggy diesel engine with Volvo internals & box.

I intend to bring the car back to the workshop tomorrow (we ran out of storage space in the yard!) and get on with it...
Replace it, £15.00 part aprox, get it from Renault.
