Whats this?

I worked on Aston Martins for over 12 years all i know is they lie, we built many V8 and run them on the engine dino and they dont make no where near the power Astons state... Very nice car though i have worked on a few DB7 GTA`S and the Vantages great car for the money.

Should have called me mate, i did work on Porsches and Ferrari in a bodyshop for over 4 years..

There would be if they have got the Renault locking tools and have not un-done the cam pulleys i guess.

I have bought stuff off of Ian @ Cam before, top man and a nice guy to...

I have a PH1 172, Prospeed exhaust, ITG panel filter and matched inlets.....40k love it to bits.

Warm them up with a hot air gun or hair dryer, that will make the glue soft so they should peel off it might leave a trace of glue behind but this can be cleaned off with a little white spirit.

Dont be silly, the air bag is another part and the price was to joe blogs so i would think that i would get a bit off. Same here tbh thats why i am going for a re trimed leather one, the guy who i bought my car off of said it was in the condition its in now when he bought it at 12k so god knows...

Yes they are still available as i have just bought a ph1 with a worn wheel, they are £250 and i think that was + vat, the one in my car was worn at 12k when the last owner bought it. I even gave Renault uk a call to see if they would pay anything towards a new one as i am also a OE nut, but they...

Have they said that they are going to sort this mess out for you? Its got to be down to them, if people where not so bloody lazy they should have cut the post off flush Grrrr i bet you are proper upset..

Wheres all the hot girls????.....I went last year but could not make this years.

Sorry i did not, when i took them to Ben he showed me the size differance between my PH1 and the later "RS" lower inlet which was about 4mm bigger on each port and this is the one i now have. He has still opened it up to meet the same size as the gasket i have got the car back together and took...

Yes so am i tbh, got the car running at 10 last night, so just about to go and finish putting the rest of it back together. The "kick" was almost a big size 10.....;) but i am now looking forward to the head work and re map he is going to do over the winter months, Bens a nice chat and was very...

Yes i have, or you can get a Powder coaters to do it but if you want to do it your self then get this http://www.frost.co.uk/item_Detail.asp?productID=8219&frostProductName=BLACK%20Wrinkle%20Finish%20(310ml)&catID=&frostCat=&frostSubCat=&subCatID= It what i used and i found it to be very good...

Cheers for that if you met me then you will know why, i dont take getting messed about very lightly :evil: and lets also say the phone call was a bit heated from my end anyway but its all cool now......:) I can use my car and i will get him to do the cylinder head and the re map over the winter...

I managed to get hold of Ben 1st thing this morning and told him how un happy i was and how let down i felt (well words to that effect :mad:) He said that they where sitting there done and that he would be comming down to Essex later on today, i said to him that i would be leaving work at 12.30...

Yes spot on, Halfords do a great Etch prima made by Upol, let it tack off then paint the black over the top we call it "wet on wet" in the trade...

Thats not a problem tbh, just want them back now bought the car 4 months ago and only done 300 miles in it. Been off the road for 5 weeks now while i was doing the belts and a few other bits

Why not? i will just go to his workshop tomo and get my bits back...He was still trading so should be open

He had lots of cars in his workshop...Also was talking about motorsport stuff he does as well...

How comes??

Drove up to Bens from Essex on the 26th July, i own my own company so was going to have a labour trade off. He was going to do my inlets now and then my cylinder head mods over the winter and i was going to do all of the welding work on his MK1 fiesta XR2. I called him last week on monday and he...

Ben @ Angelworks

Cheers was thinking that, its just my bumper has been off for about 5 weeks now as i am still waiting for the inlets... Just want to use my car and dont want the bumper to get dammaged sitting in my shed.

Hi all, dont want to sound thick but i have just done my cam belt and aux belt kits and i removed my bumper and slam panel. I have also sent both the lower and upper inlet manifolds away to be matched as well which i have not got back yet. Can i fit the front end back up, bumper, slam panel...

Do these fit the ph1 172 bumper?

You need to try and give the socket a tap with a hammer to get it to sit over the nut nice, otherwise it will keep on slipping and then you will end up rounding the nut off.

Thats the muts nuts, even i would be over the moon with that one....

I think K-tec are near you? I would offer to do it as i have the correct Renault cam and crank locking tools and have just done my belt on my ph1 172 (worked on Aston Martins for over 12 years) but i am in Essex so not alot of good to you.
