Popular Post jimbobtcc206 Posted March 28, 2021 Popular Post Posted March 28, 2021 Had a big day yesterday collecting my new car from Scotland. Big thanks to @Rush Motorsport for the trailer hire. Its a 2005 SEiW Sport 2000 duratec. 6k miles. Lovely condition generally. It’s need MoT and tax so today I clayed, machine corrected and then machine polished it on the drive. There were lots of fine minor imperfections but I got them all to a point I’m more than happy with.....even got the thumbs up from my three year old 😀 Roll on MOT and tax now! 18 Quote

SimonUK Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 Looks great! You definitely picked the best colour and engine choice Quote
Captain Colonial Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 Congratulations and enjoy! 😊👍 (BTW... that three year old has a great head of hair! 😎 like I used to many years ago ☹️) 1 Quote
jimbobtcc206 Posted March 30, 2021 Author Posted March 30, 2021 Got the mot yesterday and then taxed it. Went for a nice blat in the nearby countryside and loved it....apart from the buffeting above 40mph. Need to use ear plugs next time out methinks 😂 I have noticed a loud rattle that disappears when the clutch is depressed. I’ve done some searching on here and seems to be a common issue. I’m currently thinking to just drive it and accept it for now but I don’t want to do that if it could a bigger issue. Any thoughts or recent experiences of this? Quote

Common ailment known as Westfield Nose, stops you from breathing at speeds over 60 mph. 5 minutes ago, AlanHodge said: i got some side screens for this make a massive difference 👍 ^ This. Perspex side screens cures it. I haven’t driven with doors since I got the side screens. 7 minutes ago, Rush Motorsport said: They look ugly though. Aeroscreen! So do some of the owners... or maybe one or two of the owners choose aero screens and wear full face helmets because they’re ugly and don’t want to scare small children?
