Hi, Guys, does anyone know If It's possible to buy a new clock spring? Or does anyone have a used one I could buy?
Cheers
Dave

Fortunately the Labour Party has strength in depth. Well if you're going down that road we may as well have Diane Abbot and have done with it. ![]() |

Fortunately the Labour Party has strength in depth. I'm sure this can be overlooked. ![]() As for a 'vagina of colour' how about Dawn Butler. ![]() |

Thanks for sharing. Autocar managed 0-100 MPH in 7.9 sec......exactly the same as a Jaguar XJ220. ![]() When did the humble grocery getter become so quick? |

……….. We had a few mini’s, some old shape and some of the newer shape. In the older shape, I had a Mini Cooper S, a 1275GT, an 850 and a Clubman Traveller. I was given the Traveller as the clutch was knackered. I was also given a 1300GT engine so I nicked the clutch off that to fix the Traveller. The Traveller was a right shed so it became the sacrificial thrash-mobile that you could take anywhere. It smoked when you coasted as the valve stem rubbers were riding up and down on the stems, instead of staying put. ![]() The 850 had wolfrace wheels with flared arches, two up/two down Cibie Super Oscar’s, a Peco big bore twin exit exhaust system and Wood and Picket nudge bars. I didn’t do that to it, I bought it like that. It was funny just how many other lads wanted to race it, not realising that it was just a bog standard 850 that would do around 75mph flat out downhill. ![]() The biggest mistake I made was selling the 1300GT engine, which was a longer stroke version of my 1275GT. The lad that bought it lived just around the corner from us, and when he’d fitted the engine he came and thanked me. He said that it was the best £25 he’d spent on it, as he now had one of the fastest minis in the area. I couldn’t believe that I’d been upgrading the 1275GT and the Cooper S for extra speed, when the best engine had been sat on my garage floor for over two years. ![]() |

Ever since my childhood I have just loved the best looking Vauxhall ever: the 1960 Cresta PB in it's two tone colours and American styling
![]() The second favourite Vauxhall was the 1960 Victor with again the great American styling, but for me in red. That is because it was the first Vauxhall car I rode in, the first and second cars before being an Austin A30 and a Standard 8 (in red). What lovely cars they were to at least look at! Although as a very young passenger I found them just wonderful ![]() |

Yes I do fine it a very smooth a refined place to be, whats funny is the salary sacrifice deal removes their only negative point, the price! I did spec up an i4 eDrive40 and it was ~£50 a month less than the M60. Felt for the price, it was worth it for the extra horses ![]() Surprised they don't mention the weight, it's a very, very heavy car (2,300kg) - Even I notice it chucking around my favourite diesel covered and off camber roundabout. The old 435i and it's terrible run flat tyres barely gripped there but it was a good bit of fun. The X-Drive i4 is not quite as fun there. "The i4 remains a better all-rounder than the Tesla Model 3, let down only by its lofty price and the fact it doesn’t have universal access to the US maker’s excellent Supercharger network. Supremely refined, lightning quick and filled with well integrated, intuitive tech, the only reason not to buy an i4 M60 is because the eDrive35 is 99 per cent as capable – all for £20k less." |

Fortunately the Labour Party has strength in depth. She's still under HMRC investigation for her tax evasion. Streeting's mentor was one P. Mandelson. Reeves will go with Starmer, Cooper is useless. So any leadership contest will probably be between Mad Red Ed Millipede and the member for Gaza & Karachi Shabana Mahmood. ![]() I imagine that the so called 'Soft Left' are desperate to have a Labour PM who owns a vagina, and if it's a vagina of colour so much the better. ![]() Red Ed can be the Chancellor and play with his abacus. ![]() |

If Starmer falls on his sword good old 'Ange' can take the reins. |

Ah, yes, the Ventura. 3.3 litre engine out of a truck and front bench seat. My brother bought one for £50 and painted it like a Starsky and Hutch. When you went round a bend it was very hard to stay on the drivers side of the car.
