No is the answer Ian , I am going with two cars with Bedfordshire rs owners, we only have 5 or 6 as most cars are not 25 years old.
Will make a point of popping over and saying hello then
i really think think a lot of the shows (especially Kelsey ones) are going to be quiet this year
-
So, is anyone actually going? A lot of clubs seem to be very short on numbers for most shows from chatting to each club organiser that I know myself.
i will be going up there in my Sierra but will probably be in the Special Display as our club did not have enough going but have still received a “location” pass.

Have you double-checked that all the earth cables are connected as there is one which usually falls down the back of the battery tray.
-
If it is original, then the last 7 of the chassis number will match the engine number on the block above the water pump outlet.So weve all had the discussion a thousand times over... and so have I over the years.
Yes ford didnt make an RST Cabriolet.
HOWEVER..... I found out some news about my late 91 registered se500 that Im currently restoring.
It Was apparently supplied NEW by FORD under a police/military contract....wait for it...yes, with an RS Turbo engine and box.
If I can get confirmation of this, could this possibly be the only 1 of its kind...? 😮
If they match, post up a picture. The Turbo technics kits ran a T2 or T2.5 Turbo similar to the Fiesta RST compared to the factory fitted T3
-
I would think it's more likely a dealer done the alterations, some fitted turbos to standard engines if I remember rightly, ?
They were Turbo Technics kits and ran about 6psi boost
-
They were Rover ones, not later BMW-owned mini ones.
Trust me, I am a Parts Manager for them and we dont do them.
Btw: oben means top in German, it is not a brand.
-
Whereabouts are you situated?
Might be able to help out?
-
You are aware that "oben" means "top" or "above" in German and that it means that the lamp should be fitted that way up, not a brand name?
-
Technically yes.
However, most tracking places are run by monkeys who do not know one end of a measurement from the other so will tell you that it is not adjustable.
To adjust it, you need the appropriate washers as they are the shims to set it up.
To do it correctly takes time.

Some time after 7am for me
-
Tickets all received for this one. Thanks Paul and Colin
-
Was not a bad day in the end.
I ended up leaving around 2pm when the second lot of rain looked to be starting, but was tired and aching by then anyway.
-
I did try to ring you earlier Andy but no answer.
I can bring our big collapsible metal table and a spare stove/kettle if you wish and anything else?
-
My personal preference is a valve bent to 90 degrees and insert it through a mounting hole in the block with the valve head in the ring gear. Works every time for me.
-
I normally get there for around 6.30am and have a chat with some of the others waiting to get in.
-
All paid up now thanks to Ollie.....
-
We won't be attending it seems.
Booking is closed through the Club and apparently Kelsey have already laid out the pitches on their system.
Not a problem for me, I'll leave the car in the garage out of the way and relax at home instead.
-
Are there no more takers for this great classic car show. It's one of the best with a celeb or two hovering around.
Bookings are showing as only until 1st May in the Events section.
Is it still done through the Club or do you need to book direct with Kelsey now?
-
The glovebox key was only used on the mk3 as far as I am aware, hence the TX key design.
A lot of people do retrofit the lock though as hey fit the same. I have one in our mk4 cabby.
Any mk3 key should technically work as the barrel only uses a couple of tumblers, the rest are blanks.
-
Take the Onion.
I had a 4wd Sierra On there last year due to issues with mine
-
Colin, we may be making our own way there now.
Might have to work extra late Saturday so may put back all my plans meaning I may either be leaving later or staying up most of the night and leaving early to have a kip when there in the car park.
-
Just paid up as well
-
1990 onwards 14" Sierra Ghia 2wd wheels for those that care

Hi does anyone know why my membership is currently showing as unpaid membership status when I rejoined at the beginning of March?
