Imagine a different scenario to this and another car was involved, I think frankies insurance would have walked away from it. Very lucky
I think that any repair should be 'roadworthy' even if you know you shouldn't do a trackday with it in the current state.
It's just rather unfortunate all around and a good job everyone is OK....
Frankie, it's nothing personal, but Viking has a point. You ultimately caused the issue by the repair not being done correctly, it's totally understandable (given snow / 14h days / etc) and I don't...
Am i the only person here thinking you are a total idiot frankie? You drove a car with your daughter in at 70mph with a bodged suspension repair putting your lives and everyones around you at risk?...
Go 3" you know you want to! They don't drone that badly ;)
A true full 3" system will always be a better way to go also if well built.
On the newly fitted Volans which have been powder coated having been stripped to bare metal and machined, I am keen to make sure the finish lasts as long as possible. I know some people use rim wax,...

At long last got my Volans back from refurbishment at Lepsons of Gillingham today. I promise I will post photos tomorrow - but fitted them in the dark so pictures would not have done them any...
i'm glad you added "and bolts" into that sentence, be having more photoshop'd pics from Viking again lol
i think it'd be more to do with the Swastika on Bonny's rear window myself lol
you say that but it was Justin who took the brunt of the pi$$ taking in Kent, probably why he f**ked your engine up (thats got you thinking hasn't it ;))
i wouldn't last the weekend before i get...
sorry to hear this jel car is really trying you, glad to see your saving her and not breaking,,tho i pity your bank balance....lol
Bloody hell Jerry, it seems one by one these damn 850's are blowing up on their owners!
Are you going to source another engine?
you probably got one of silky susans silk hoof covers trapped in the
gasket pedro
Bloody hell, is that car cursed or something?
Good luck with the loan.
What can I say Jerry? It's not like you didn't try. If you are looking for a home for the 18t and 3" system I might know of one ;) It just makes me realise how lucky I have been with mine...
I think you win the award for the most dedicated forum member!!
I hope it works out mate.
££££££££££ hell Jerry, I am completely gutted for you. The money work and effort that went into finally getting it right, and then for it to do this on you. It just wasn't meant to be mate... on to...
oi, what about me? i supervised lol
Sorry about your problems again.
Did you skim the head before refitting?
ffs sorry to hear that mate
really sorry to hear that mate....a beauty it looks too.....shame though your breaking it, i almost was at a point of selling mine but i hadnt even started on it, let alone spend all the money and...
damn, sorry to hear its backed up again & that your giving up on it, but its understandable considering the issues you've had. Does that mean your going over to some german Merc 5hit?
it wasn't...
oh dear. sorry to hear it!!! Very premature gasket failure given all the work thats been done.
