Recently bought this car off my brother this is what it looked like when he first did it up. He broke the alloys recently before i bought it. I was driving it for too weeks and this happens. lets just say me and the ditch didnt like each other!!

does anyone know where i can get engine mounts for it cheap !! opel gave me a price of €300 for 2
-
ya got out of the car with out a scratch even doa i hit the ditch at 90 mph what a thank of a car ha!
-
Are they an item you could get from a breaker? Or do they need to be new?
-
ya i could get them from a breakers yard but would prefer them new cause its the rubber engine mount, so most old rubber engine mounts would be perished
-
Yep, fair point. Sounds expensive in Euros, though may be a standard price.
Drop andyc a pm and see if he can get you a better deal :y
-
cheers mate! :y
-
You must have a really long drive ::)
-
Whoops ya something like that!!! ;D
-
Was this the car where the alloy was welded back up :-\
-
ya they were about a ear ago but they broke again and were rewelded but they didnt turn out too good. cause there was a massive lump broke out of them due to the shitty roads of ireland but the alloys were way to brittle couldnt even drive over a pot hole >:( !! im thinking banded steelys for it next !

LC's didn't come with Azev's. They were factory fitted with Ronal's. Alot of the replica LC's did have Azev's on though, back in the day... :y
