thats unusual to have so much rot there ! previous flood damage maybe ?Started today off well. got to stripping the interior to take a look at the rot in the footwell.

I was thinking as I seen it from the underside it should be ok, a small patch job will do. I think I'm in for quite a bit of work ahead.
Thanks for that chris, come hell or high water - I'm going to have blue or green dials. I'll buy the whole bleddy car if I have to.Davy, Si have green, GX/Inspiration 1.3's have black ones. I think Facelift, facelift (the ones that had 1.4) had blue rev counter ones. I think I've only ever seen them once.
GX carried over from preface to facelift. SR turned to SI.
Twister was available in some Special Editions (2000) and Celebration came to some of the last K11's. In the last versions you get Twister, Tempest, S (the one you see everywhere), SE and SE+ and Sport I think?

Picked up the Micra, there's a few minor problems but nothing to major
I forgot how slow they are in standard form
Bad times.WDIDT?
Fitted the front lowering springs....but, stupidly, let one of the top mounting nuts roll off somewhere....
*facepalm*
I'll have another search around the car tomorrow morning...but I now know that Wilco, Screwfix and Halfords don't have them (useless!)

Well have spares if not pretty sure we've got a few in the garage... A load in my car... Some in my coat pocket... And the odd few rolling around in the bottom of my handbag x
Don't think so, I bought it off my mate he never mentioned it being advertised any whereHello jonez, that motor was on E bay ????
Great news!
I've managed to get another nut!
Bad news!
I got because the right-hand side had sheered off overnight!
Yay!
Looks like I'll be on the DRZ this week then....

Just for you, Huggington, my pride & joy...
is it me or are the front directional tyres of the bike the wrong way?
Basically, the tread on bike tyres is different to cars because bike tyres have a curved profile and spend a lot of their time on the sides....whereas car ones are pretty much flat on the road...
