Excellent news! Look forward to seeing you there. Yes, I’ll find somewhere suitable for us to meet before to drive in together 👍

Managed to get the day off work so I’ll be coming along to this now which is great , be good to have a meet up before we get in so we can all park together

Haha! Small world right. Yeah it belongs to my mate who isn’t currently an active WSCC me never. It’s a great car 👍

Didn't realise Ben Draper's old car was local as well!

Boys and their Toys night out, cracking night for a spin out. I didn’t realise my mate owned a former members Mazda SDV 1.6t car….

New to the club and Westfield, haven't been out in it yet as only just taken delivery so waiting till Sept 1st to Tax, that said it won't start so might still not get out in it 🤦

You’d be surprised, they’ve been around longer than people think, though the very first ones in the early nineties didn’t have the two triangular vents at the back, I think, those were added when the SEiGHts moved from the older carb based engines to the Rover fuel injection, later on in the nineties. Outside of the SEiGHT though, I don’t think V8 bonnets were that common a sight in the nineties though, till towards the end, when the extra clearance helped as people moved over to generally taller, 16 Valve engines, from Classic Ford 8 valvers.

Well to be strictly accurate, and at the risk of sounding pedantic 😉, the Panhard rod stops the chassis moving sideways in relation to the axle. The tyres, through friction on the road, stops the axle moving sideways!😉😄 Sorry, couldn't help it.

They’re narrow live axle (SE) parts as opposed to narrow independent rear axle (SEI) that you have. The short arms of which there are normally two each side act as trailing arms to secure the axle tube to the chassis whist the longer panhard rod mounts transversely across the chassis to stop the axle tube moving sideways.

The video by VDO that shows what to do is really good, apart from it's the other bezel design that twists off. Hopefully you have a twist off one ... but it's not that bad if you've the pressed on one. Other lesson learnt - plug it back into the dash and make sure the needle zeroes properly before you put it all back together - saves a lot of swearing if you haven't put the needle back on properly...
