Coor blimey! Was just having a casual browse and saw my old car for sale again. Can't believe that is a serious price? It is a lovely car, but unless it has an engine rebuild since then I can't see...

Careful using a front protection bar. If you hit something with it it can tear off and make a mess of your front floor pan; been there, got the mess to fix :) Kind of defeats the point of having it....

Many thanks Vandit. I will try the crow's foot again, though I don't find I can get onto all of the nuts with it and even when I can I can't get it snugly on. The flexi-socket is the easiest to use,...

Resurrecting an old thread, but thought it better than starting a new one.

Great work Ricardo. Reading threads like yours and many others on Rennlist have been a real inspiration for me to tackle bigger tasks on my 964.

Broken exhaust stud and Stomski Racing kit

I thought that Linen and Light Grey were one and the same, just a MY name change? Anyway, looks like Linen to me. Were there other options that even looked close to Linen?
