    SORTED - Standard 14" early bay steel road wheel

    Hi folks - as per title. After a single steel road wheel ( 5 x 205 x 14") as loose wheel bolts have led to enlarging the bolt holes in mine :x Will be refurbished so condition unimportant so long as it is straight... Hubcap clips present ideally, but can live without as it is to be used...

    WTD - Very early (1968) long spindle rear stub-axle

    Hi folks, I'm still after a very early (1968 only, I think?) long stub-axle if anybody has or knows of one please. The threads are knackered on mine and the nut keeps popping back by one thread as I approach the required torque. I ended up losing a hub nut and nearly the whole wheel and drum...

    Engine trouble - in France

    Supermarket E10 fuel from E. Leclerc?? It's possible - it' s up to 10% ethanol and not all engines like it... Dodgy fuel did for me in Ireland last year and it was perfect when I got back with no other adjustments.

    hi there, i had this last year but the splines in the stub were actually ok - it was the drums that were dead - completely round inside! i have spare drums for sale if needed.

    Commuting Distance?

    All very wise words, thanks all. With regret I think I'll have to let this one go :? You're right though, life is too short to spent it all in traffic. It's not just that, but it's having to get to bed early to be able to get up early the following day - so effectively your evening is...

    Commuting Distance?

    Hi folks - just thought I'd canvas opinion. How far do people commute these days? I have the opportunity of a dream job for me at the moment but its 1hr45 away minimum. Between 55 and 67 miles depending on route, non-motorway. nearly 3 hrs by train so that's out. That's too much right...
