To update - We have purchased number 54 off Steve H back in December 2020.
After several months of rebuilding and furthur modifications its now road legal again and a few of you might have seen it at CS Festival yesterday.
Sneak preview, have approx 200 hours of updates to come in due course...
Clip is still the boyo on original management. Have been using RsTuner quite a bit lately too and its quite user friendly, just cost of modules is the downside.
If your good with french Ren0link is great, and cheap. Works on modern windows software too.
Kangoo is super clean and ready for takeoff. As predicted its pissing down so prob waste of time cleaning :LOL:
Looking forward to catching up with everybody tomorrow
Old vs new and aftermarket vs oem which is probably making them look different. Could try machine polishing the original to make it pop, or replace that so you have a matching pair.
That is a strange one. Spacer behind bearing should not make a difference as the pad thickness sits the caliper in place parallel to the disc.

Cheers mate. Collar me on the day so i dont forget 😘
Cheers mate, its slowly getting there. Got a few more bits planned but can wait for now until winter.
Cheers mate. Adey's twingo is class, i cant wait to see what it goes like. It was a riot when i took it out at the last CS festival with...
Fitted a nimbus heatshield to the upper scuttle yesterday. It had a crappy bit of carpet sound deadening fitted originally which was looking ropey so took it off when i first done the conversion. Thought it was worthwhile fitting something right above the turbo to reflect some radiant heat...
Updates
CSF prep almost done
New brembo hc front discs fitted, ferodo ds1.11 front pads, system fully flushed with motul rbf 600 fluid.
Discs come pre painted on the bits that rust in anthricite and look well.
Pressure bled brakes in sequence and the pedal went a bit long for some bizarre...
Even though the selector seal is quite drippy it wont lose much. My old Kangoo was the same, when i topped it up occasionally it took hardly nothing, just monitor it and if it ends up being a gusher time to fix
That leaks a pisser on the gearbox end cap, they sometimes go pourous with rust, still available new from ren iirc.
That sawcut in splitter was making my ocd go wild :LOL: looks so much better cut to length
Cheers all. I got the wheel bags from rofag via ebay a couple of years back, they were reasonably priced at the time but cant see them for sale anymore. Generic wheel bags that look similar are dirt cheap though £5-10 a set.
