I'm not sure on the exact name but if you google 'sparco 215' you will find something similar.
We need a new one as the suede has rubbed off and it's a bit too smooth.
Small update time......
Well since the breakdown in Germany we haven't done much to her at all. She pretty much sat out on the drive for the rest of the summer. So for a little inspiration I booked a trackday, sure to lift our spirits and get us in the garage, spanner in hand, ready to fix her.
Firstly we took the starter and the alternator off, we had them tested and was told that the aternator regulator had failed, probably the cause of the melting wires and the starter giving up the ghost.
New starter and alternator purchased and fitted!
Then to look at the wiring......
The Pug garage had made a bit of a mess of things when they were looking for faults, and basically pulled the loom half out and took it to bits too.
So, loom out, and it didn't look good, the wiring from the alternator and the starter was fried, as was the earth from the gearbox to the chasis. We also found out that the loom was not connected up to the car via your normal plug method, but it had been connected using spade connectors. Not the best we thought, so away I went with an aircraft spec plug and some crimping tools.
And with a finished product of this...
Not the best photos I know, but you can see what I have done
Then we had the idea of getting a trailer, rather unexpected really but it does make sense in the long run to have the ability to tow her home just incase something goes wrong again.
So...
Has a cheeky tyre rack too!
Now tonight was a big night, my dad replaced a couple of relays that looked to have had a shock in Germany, and also gave it new fuses, as the Germans seemed to be short of them and stole ours.
Then with crossed fingers he gave her a whirl and she fired first time, JACKPOT!
Not that interesting I know, but it has been a busy few weeks for us and we are chuffed to bits to have her running again.
I shall get a few more pics up of what we have done to her in a few days.
Cheers

Nice project mate, know crossie's car well. Currently building a black S1 with 16v Jp4 power and 1.3 box myself, looking forward to getting it finished in the next couple of weeks.

Probably not doing Marham this year, the Rallye suffers with the massive straight. I find it quite boring when I have to just sit there at 120mph and watch people go past
Not heard much about it at all to be fair though, the guy who used to run it was my boss, now he has moved on and someone else runs it. If I hear anything I will post it up though dude.
Sweet work, I think it's a good combo, the shorter ratio box works really well, except at Marham or the 'ring
You'll have to get some pics up!

Nice pics mate, did dans missus take them?
172 Cup
If you ever come across one i do recommend purchasing one
You probably have the 24mm ARB off the Gti in yours i thinkLooks alot better with the decals on it, looked a bit plain when it didnt have them on
Random update, but I didn't know where to put this picture.
So dad uncovered the Rallye this weekend as it needs a little work before it's ready for Rockingham next month.
It's been sat on the trailer, in the garage since well before Christmas. The window had been left open and the garage is a nice new, dry one. So nothing prepared us for this, lol...
I think a new one will be on order soon. But I'll have a look at it and give it clean up.

Another Update.
Since we got the car, we have always wanted to put a cage back in. Since we booked Spa, now seems like a better time than any.
We wanted to put a Safety Devices cage in, as this is what was fitted previously. It would make fitting so much easier too. So I had a quick scan, and quickly found one on Ebay, in Dartford.
So, back in Doncaster...
Got the car all emptied, and ready to rock.
All fitted
And everything back in place.
Seats were a bugger to fit once the cage was in. The seats touch the door bars, making it a little tricky, but we got there in the end.
So happy now it's in, I feel safer already. Roll on Spa!!!
