Re: R8 Press Launch re-run - Oct 10th 2019
Great day, thanks, that was an amazing experience! What a great venue too, can't imagine how it must have been back then with booze and a hangover on day 2 with the long drive!

I fancy putting quad headlights behind stock shaped lenses. It's one thing I really liked about the some of the Super Touring era BTCC cars. Not had many cars with the right shaped lights to start with, so would be nice to get round to it on the R8. Thinking about this as said above myself... Think...

Re: Newbie with R8 416.
Hi all, just picked up a late R8 416 SLi to use as my MG Metro appears to have dissolved in the rain! Not driven an R8 since the new 200's used as lone cars from the Land Rover dealership I worked at. Will no doubt end up giving it a few tweaks, but want to try and stay fairly sensible this time!? ...

Re: r8 headlight conversion
You have definitely posted in the right forum.......and I am sure there has been a discussion about headlamp mods within the last 12 months. I can't remember the detail, but I think somebody mentioned doing something with a conversion that had been made for a Fiat Punto or Citroen Xantia??? Xantia?...

Re: BMC/BL Rally & Spares Day, Peterborough 5th August 2018
Sounds good, I intend to attend. ANPR? Time to cover up plates, or use someone else's, ofc. :laughing2 1992 216gsi, clearly. Hopefully, less rusty if my July rust-attacking has any success at all. Well, should rust that quickly again anyway. Anyone good at doing paint, haha? I will probably attempt ...

Sticky backed centre badges available on fleabay, bought my aluminium ones for a bargain price from Bulgaria! Fro...
