Re: Brexit Bonus!
It is that sort of reporting, misinformation and wilfull lying that makes us glad to be out of the EU. No empty shelves here and we are making a concious effort to avoid buying any EU goods. No more French wine and German cars. I am sure other countries are consideriung following our lead.

Re: Headlight bulbs
Relay conversion along with the latest generation super-bright halogen bulbs from Phillips or Ring. http://forum.etypeuk.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=4919 HID will not fit and would not be legal as they require headlamp washers and self levelling suspension. LED's are a similar legal minefield and there ...

Brexit Bonus!
Best news yet about Brexit - the French can no longer pusue British drivers for speeding once they have left the country and it applies to all EU states. Equally, as we want to be fair to our European neighbours, we can't fine them if they find an opportunity to go fast over here. To be clear the Po...

No, but I seem to recall J D Classics were selling a carbon fibre prop-shaft for the E-Type about 12 years ago.

Re: Synthetic and semi synthetic; help please?
Follow the manufacturers instructions to the letter. For our 993, Porsche specify Mobil 1 and I have only once deviated from that at the suggestion of a well known specialist based on cost. The result was an odd gurgling noise from the engine until it fully warmed up. Sounded like a cross between se...
