    the highsports are rated well, but the height adjustment is prone to sieze. I've also read that unless near the top, or was it bottom *-) , they are overly firm. Which i would tend to agree with, although being poly bushed up probably doesn't help my lack of suspension. It is quite common for my seat belt to lock when going over bumps. I havent heard of the first ones and I'm sure other people will review their own setups. Also check with your insurer, some are OK with drops of upto ~50mm where as further than that can cause problems / highly inflated premiums. IIRC the highsports can man

    I stand corrected about the levels ( 95 not 96 ) but the names are premium for the 95 and super for 98+, Stanard is the old 2 star which is rare in the UK, more usual on the continent though.

    top of the range waxes sell for £Ks a tub and frnkly all the practioners are a bit anal, from what I've read. ;-) Sorry to hear about your work situation. There is a lot of it about. I can think of at least 4 other forum members in the same boat, myself included.

    Where are you buying your petrol? Aldi?? 92RON that's like 2 star in the old money. UK unleaded is usually 96RON. This will be absolutily fine for your VR. Some people use ultimate / optimax religoiusly though for the 'better cleaning' and i must admit to the odd tank full of Tesco 99RON before rolling roads / 1/4miles

    There may be a plastic lead removal tool attached to your bonnet prop, or else GSF sell metal ones. Or as you are replacing the leads, brute force! A normal plug socket will work as long as you have enough extention bits to reach,

    I'd certainly be up for camping night before and Dlea takes a lot of prepping so if you could ask if we could have a discrete camp. we'll need to have some idea of number before getting to far organizing a stand other than as a club we are down with the clown for this as usual.

    Ben is onto the club display I'm sure. Dlea has wrangled the camping before from Danny directly.

    hi ya mate, if it's a later model with built in immobiliser it'll be that not disabling. maybe to do with the transducr ring near the ignition switch. i suggest you search through the FAQ as it;s a common problem, if it's on older obd1 model kinda pre 1995, m/n reg generally ... well it wont be ;-) but I'm sure someone else will have other suggestions in which case.
