  10. Thanks for the positive comments, price wise I feel it’s a good price for someone to put the minor things right and have something to show for it. Hopefully will go to a good home.
  11. Hello All, Reluctantlty putting the Storm up for sale…. mileage is arround 97,000miles, the car is MOT’d untill 9th June 2019 (car flew threw last few with no advisories). Work to date: - Just had a major service - oil filter ,fuel filter , air filter, plugs, leads etc - New top mounts plus bearings fitted all round - Roof lining retrimmed - Alloys remanufactured by Pristine in Woburn - Tyres are excellent - Re-trimmed OEM gear knob - New rad flange - New outer sunroof seal - New Aerial + base - Uniroyal Rainport 3 all round with approx 6mm tread The car is pretty much stock (still has the orginal tools, first aid, warning triangle and OEM mats) the only aftermarket items are: - Koni struts & H&R springs (not coilovers) - Alpine head unit + alpline OEM fit speakers - Toad CAT 1 Alarm (2 x alarm fobs + keys present) The car has stack of paperwork with it, along with the original leather bound wallet with all the manuals and service book. The bad points….the sunroof does not work, the car was resparyed 4 years ago I believe, there are a couple of bits that are not quite right.. Any questions please ask....ps the bonnet is open in the pics below...it does shut :), in my haste to take pics for the agreed value I forgot to close it + when its in the garage it's usually on charge

    VR6 engine parts

    Hi mate, Im in Milton Keynes, bit of trek to Dorset but sounds like it would be worth it to get all the bits in one hit. Happy to come to a mutually beneficial arrangement
  18. Pristine is double the cost but the work is flawless, BJV is roughly half the price, but you might end up with a couple of very minor imperfections

    VR6 engine parts

    Looking for any vr6 engine parts really bit of a brain dump: Crank pulley Flywheel Intermediate shaft sprocket Oil cooler housing Heat exchanger and housing Ally mount that bolts to the engine for mounting pas pump and alternator Rear Engine mount Exhaust manifolds Maybe I should just buy a blown engine and strip the bits?
  20. Hmmm unsure, like the wheels....undecided about the colour....completely messed up the great handling....unfortunately necessary evil as the brakes have to be upgraded as existing brakes have tendency to fade and smoke with heavy use :)
  21. Had sets done from BJV in Hemel and a Pristine in Woburn both fine for years. Something doesn't sound right, they shouldnt chip or crack that easy, sounds like the coating has not bonded properly.
  22. Hello all, Can anyone advise how much an orginal 90mm never fitted front splitter should sell for? Cheers
