    Coupe prices - what's happening?

    Good advice. I was looking at a car on the forum[a high mileage GS]some time ago. By the time I decided to take the plunge it was gone. Went off and did my own thing and lived to regret it. Much better to by one that's well known in the community.....

    Coupe prices - what's happening?

    I like the 4200 I find it more playful to drive and I love the look of it. Had a QP5 GTS and it was great to drive in a different way. It looks like you have plenty of time so try a few and see what fits your needs best. There are plenty out there to choose from. Good luck with it and have fun...

    Coupe prices - what's happening?

    The grey one was mine for a good while until I sold it in 2015 to another forum member. He had it for over 6 years and really liked the car. I was almost tempted to buy it back. Maybe its been neglected a bit since but it was a solid old car.

    Fancy a Winter/Spring project?

    I hope he does break it if only for me to have that F1 control dashboard out of it.......

    Time for a new Clutch - costs and approach?

    Barry at SB Race Engineering in Aylesbury can price it up for you. Really good set up and they got my CC running perfectly. Highly recommended.

    Classic car auction 19th June blue 4200

    Hi All. Quick update on the car. I took her to SB Race Engineering in Aylesbury for a check over before I committed to having the clutch changed. Considering I still cant find an F1 dashboard anywhere I just wanted them to get her running properly first. They did a clutch reading @87% worn and...

    2005 4200 Coil Springs

    Afternoon all. My mad auction purchase is with the lads at SB Race Engineering having some work done. The car needs new coil springs on the front and original ones are NLA. Any help/advice appreciated. Presumably I will need to go down the aftermarket route and if so replace the rears at the...

    Stalling issue was worse after a run and the car was hot. It didnt happen until closer to home after a 40 mile drive. Went to a hand car wash where I had to drive up a bit of a ramp and she wasnt happy at all...

    Classic car auction 19th June blue 4200

    I am in Milton Keynes. I have been given the number of a guy who does all the mechanical work for Romans in ST Albans. I was going to give him a shout but if anybody can recommend someone local-ish that would be great. I had already resigned myself to replacing the clutch.

    Classic car auction 19th June blue 4200

    OK so drove the car home yesterday and am pleased with car all things considered. Had a couple of issues with the car stalling when pulling away which Rockits had already told me about. Of more concern to me is the fact that I cant engage reverse-whatever I try its not happening. The lever seems...
