  1. Evening all! I'm Marko and run a company called SpeedView Displays. I sell a small head-up display that projects speed onto your windscreen and hope to create some “how to” guides for fitting it each to model with the forum’s help. Before we do that though, I thought I'd say hello and show that I bleed EP90 when cut... Toys on the current fleet: My first car – verging on family heirloom now as I’ve had it half my life. It had an 8 valve pushrod carbed 2.3 petrol in at first, which did 15mpg, had 50 bhp, needed leaded petrol, and took a shade over 30 secs to hit 60. The insurers wouldn't let me put a 2.5 turbo-diseasel in, but any smaller engine was fine. (I was 17 at the time) Any engine I asked? Anything you like, so long as its smaller. I didn't ask twice! The engine came from a Rover 220 Coupe Turbo, big intercooler, with the boost set to, err, several? Live axles, leaf springs, and drum brakes on the front and the rear. Knobbly Teflon cross-plies added to the fun! I also own 1/3 of what seemed like a really, really, good idea in the pub. (Damn you eBay for Android) Could have been worse I suppose, as we found a few cheap double-deckers in the watch list. An ex-Westminster XJ8 that Dave Cameron might drive it if he was as flair as JFK. She’s an early extended wheelbase 4.0 V8 sovereign with a half a hundredweight of structural reinforcement to replace the stiffness lost when the roof was removed. The structural work is complete, just the minor task of refitting all the electronics/interior and a lick of paint. Kitted out to tow so if you see any Oz Clark/James May worthy caravan knocking about... The sensible daily. They cost about 20 pence to insure, the engines/gearboxes are completely indestructible, and they're an absolute riot on the B-roads at “Hey, I’m not going to lose my licence” speeds. Point; squirt; (oppo); grin. Tedious on the motorway though and lacks 50-80 punch for A-road overtakes. Hello anyways, I hope I’ll fit in and can be of some use! -- Marko More toy detail here: http://www.speedview.co/about
  2. Hi all, I'm Marko and I sell a gadget that projects speed onto your windscreen. (SpeedView daylight visible Head up Display) A couple of photos and a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCP7fzrHULw This sits in your peripheral vision to reduce the time spent with your eyes off the road and unlike GPS based devices, there's no lag in the display. The speed shown (kph or mph) will be correct no matter what you've done with tyres/gearboxes/differentials, and it shows up well on trackday cameras. Looks flair too - perhaps you want it just for that. :-) Everything is easier to fit with photos and a few tips and tricks from somebody who has fitted one before. Real enthusiasts and customers write the best "How To" guides, so if you write a quick guide to share with others I'll discount your SpeedView to just £40 (including delivery) to say thanks. (retail price £69.99) My website has more details and FAQs: http://www.speedview.co/ Here are the universal install guides and tech specs: http://www.speedview.co/faq/download Think you might be interested? Questions? Feedback? Ask here, or you can find me at [email protected] (these will be £60 to forum members thereafter, with 5% of sales going to the forum kitty)
