    Yeah I seem to have a thing with rare cars. It costs a fortune to maintain, lucky it didn't need any welding for the MOT and surprisingly its pretty good underneath. Strut tops are a little scabby which is one of the main places they go, that and where the strut ties into the inner wing. Only...

    Exhaust

    The 3rd exhaust thats on my car is a pattern part, code is something like REN927. Cost £220 for the whole system. It was the only system I found to have identical tips to the standard system, it also lasted twice as long as the original.

    Yeah, RS or any other electrical factor. They are cheap enough. Maybe a good add on for your refurbs.
