Re: Tyre recommendations

Thanks everyone.

BTW, what about Kleber? (owned by Michelin). Available in 185/70R15 89W for £96 a pop. Also available in many other sizes like 205's

Re: Tyre recommendations

^^^^^^
So, what do you think of the stance of that car? In case you didn't notice, the rears are 1" taller. Does the stance look OK or terrible? Does it look like a tractor?

Since a few months ago I've been wondering whether the British are allowed to advertise parts on BaT.

information in your link seems to confirm Jonathan's thoughts: "The UK considers vehicles that have been exported for over 12 months permanently exported ... the car will be treated as a fresh import during re-importation" I agree. But curious to know why Netherlands? Do you have a second...

Re: Koni: OPC versus premier dealers

I have a question about the front shock mounts (pic below). The PET catalogue doesn't provide a part number for just the rubber piece, so does it mean if I want to replace the rubber I have to buy the whole thing? 911-341-018-00-OEM_2.jpg Second question, what is the little spacer (item no. 6) in th...

I would think the same as the tool kit. (easy to steal)
