It would be a bit of a jaunt to get back from Fuertaventura 🤣

Bump 🥺

How about @Tim (Sideways) Johnson - Club Treasurer?

Fitted a new alternator and belt today as the old one gave up the ghost after I decided the belt looked a bit slack and that was probably why the charging light stayed on for a while after starting. All working as it should now, but I noticed a small puddle of coolant on the floor. That’s the next job lined up then 😂

New Rev limiter to replace my antique one. Few other little items still to turn up.

It hasn't had a V5C change since 23rd April 2012, but you probably know that already?

Time for another check to see if anyone knows of this car - still SORN, no new MoT and no export marker...

I've actually (mostly) solved this on my car after a few iterations. I ran a strip of closed cell foam along the contact point of the side screens with the body. This is the only photo I can find showing the foam without the screens fitted: At higher speed there's still a little mist that comes up, but it's nowhere near the vortex that I used to get.

This is the interloping water that confuses me in mine. Was quite funny the first time it happened though.

I would suggest Sika 521UV black. Don't forget to mask all the areas close to where you want the silicone to go, things can get messy.

Got any photos of how it looks? My car is silver so thinking contrast of black silicon maybe too much

Will be there. Always look forward to this one, walking distance too! thanks Dave for organising Andy

Thanks for arranging @Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) I'll be there as will be @Connor Modro (Pete)

Silicon. (general use stuff, not the bathroom specific types) After spotting someone using it in on their car, and thinking it looked much neater/better, I've just changed to using black rather than the standard clear silicon, on my Electric Blue coloured car.

That time of year is fast approaching!! (Thursday the 4th December) It will soon be the annual Cheshire & N. Staffs Christmas Curry. K2H, in Sandbach, is booked for 7.30pm. So, those of us that can get there earlier, will meet up from around 6.30 onwards at the George Inn, just round the corner from the restaurant for a drink, before we stroll down to K2H As before, parking is available in Waitrose car park, or the big overspill car park just before it. (Just be aware Sandbach is starting to add pay to park to some of it's carparks', so keep an eye out, just in case!) The George Inn - 39 High St, Sandbach CW11 1AL K2H Indian - 3-4 Georges Walk, High St, Sandbach CW11 1AR Car Park - Flat Ln, Sandbach CW11 4BE Can you let me know as soon as possible if you're coming please! Me!! Ian K. Andy D Pete H Mark L

Mines is F20C so exhaust is drivers side so not so much of an issue. i guess I’ll have to take a look for gaps and seal accordingly. Any recommendations on what sealer to use?

….which reminds me, I added some DIY Kaylan mudflaps to the cyclewings which made a big difference to the amount of crud that gets thrown up.

Also when the spray hits the rear wheel arch it bounces up under the sidescreen onto your upper right arm, there’s not a lot you can do to stop that, and believe me I’ve tried 🙄 on a zetec car it’s not as much of a problem for the passenger cos the exhaust deflects a lot of the spray away. i suppose it’s the same for the driver on a Duratec car.

indicators not an issue, id most likely leave the current ones as they are anyway or ive a hold to fill lol

Thanks, but need new, shiny piece.

Although it appears they don't have the indicator
