Don't forget the VAT!

We always show including VAT so £44.95 inc VAT.

Paddock show excluding VAT, so £48 inc VAT.

Fair play, can't argue with that. :P

I could say however that those few extra lb's I carry could be negated by the plastic windows throughout, and the lack of carpets/trim.

I'll let you know that I have filled them to the brim several times in the last 15 odd years!

However never when I do a track day, autosolo, or such like as it gets very heavy with 16 gallons of fuel in the back!

Its only really useful extra capacity for the long stretch's of the RBRR, 10 Countries, etc.

Strange, its never happened to me.

We built a Herald to do the trans Africa run many years ago with both a Spitfire tank, and an Estate tank.

This hardly compromises boot space at all, still loads of room for spares/luggage.

Works Vitesse's have a balance pipe between the two tanks.

So no need for two senders, two gauges, or changeover valves.

Simples.

Your options are now limited to re-chrome, or the stainless ones from Vietnam.

There is, and has only ever been the one type available.

Buy with confidence from any supplier that lists them.

We saw 65 a couple of times on the RBRR.

It was any sort of hill that was the killer(pray)

Door shells all gone now and no plans to ever do them again.

Correct number for a MKIV (and early 1500 pre spacer) is RKC1624.

Correct number for a Spitfire MKIII is 208493.

Later spacer type?

Ignore the 'out of stock' I have just checked the box and there is 'sufficient' stock.

Please note what I said about Courier spring availabilty earlier in this thread.

One and the same thing, but unfortunately now all gone bar one, and we have no plans to do anymore (all to do with MOQ's, and very VERY slow sales).

I have recently fitted a set of Aldridge 2000 carpets to a customers car.

We supplied the original set as patterns. For some reason they took it on themselves to add extra piping to areas where there would have orginally been none. Trying to fit it like that would have been difficult, but fortunately there was sufficient carpet (just) in those areas for me to carefully remove it, and fit as original.

Also they made the rear main carpet in three sections despite having the original one piece as a template.

Apart from that the quality of the carpet used far surpassed that of any other repro set I have seen in a 2000/2.5 in years.

Double ouch! Time to put our prices up me thinks.

About 25 kilos then. That would explain the left to right difference on a GT6 (GT6 has petrol tank way over on the left hand side of the car).

On the US GT6 Triumph fitted a spring spacer on the left hand front coil spring to compensate for petrol tank, and driver (sits on the left!).

I say its the shock knocking due to having insufficient range of movement which is common on this conversion.

How much fuel did you have in the tank when you took those pictures?

Coventry Transport Museum then?

So that will be Gaydon then

I remember struggling up that hill in the Atlast a few RBRR's back.
