Re: What kind of alloys are they?
They were available from R3 launch only on the Vi and were simply known as "5 Spoke Sports Alloys". Internally they were known as "Linfords" apparently. The only other alloy available at launch was a "7 Spoke Luxury Alloy" on the 216SLi and that was known internally as "Sally". I will let John expla...

Re: Rover 45 Diesel not revving
From my experience with the L series in our 25 it does sound like the MAF.

Re: A very late introduction!
It's because when you became a paid up member of the club you gave the email address associated with your conductorwomble forum name rather than the email address you are using for topcat tomcat. You should be able to access the members area using the conductorwomble details alternatively we can swa...

Re: Fog Lamps or Driving Lights
The reflectors will be different. Fog lights are designed to give a bright wide spread of light to pick out the kerb and the immediate road ahead. Driving lights are designed to light up the far distance. When you are driving in fog you should drive on dipped lights to reduce glare from the fog. Fog...

Re: R8 digital clock replacement
Yes, there is a bulb in the clock so it could well be that. I had assumed you had just lost some of the bars that make up the numbers.

Re: R8 digital clock replacement
It's very simple actually. Just slide a flat but not sharp bladed object (something like a plastic spreader you get with tile grout) behind the wood trim at the curved end near the passenger door and gently prize it out. It is held in by several metal spring clips. The clock is fixed to the wood by ...

Re: FBHVC position on ban on sale of new cars with IC engines from 2030
I have been into Birmingham today and they have already put the CAZ warning signs up on the Aston Expressway. Hopefully they intend to cover them up until next June. I have been watching this avidly. They originally planned an introduction of this on 1st Jan 2020. It was initially delayed because th...
