Re: petrol ron
I do, and always have filled up both my MX5 and my Mini Cooper S on Shell V-Power Nitro+ The Mini performed well on the dyno for a standard engine, 191 bhp when it's meant to be 170. I've no idea if the fuel plays a part, but it surely must make a small difference. And aren't they supposed to have a...

Chris Evans the New Face of Top Gear...
So it's been officially announced by the BBC. I can't say I'm excited, are you? It certainly won't be Top Gear in my eyes...
Thoughts?

As Wayne said, all just been replaced. Very odd.

The Future of the Combustion Engine.
This is an old video, but I've only just stumbled across it. So I thought I'd share it in case, like me, you've not seen or heard of it either. This is some truly amazing tech, and this was 2 years ago so I wonder how it's improved, and where it's at today... https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=587&...

Re: Alan's poorly Red Mk 1 :0(

When the car is in gear, and you let off the accelerate, so just coasting in gear, it makes a funny sort of grinding noise. As soon as you accelerate it goes,...

Re: It all started with a knob and an MX5
Ste has done a great job again. He sorted my MX5 out too after the sills were thoroughly rusted!

I love that Neo Chrome Razo Gear Knob too, I have a silver Razo one, but I think I might need to get one of those!
