There's very little in the way of parts available for Charades unfortunately. There not very common cars here in the UK, and I know they are almost non-existant in the US. There as common as muck in Aus lol and there are a few parts available there, but I havent dont that much research into...

lol I actually forgot that whilst I know you can't get hold of HC-E manuals I do have: HD-E 1.6L SOHC 4 Cylinder Naturally Aspirated Workshop Manual I read somewhere that the HC-E and HD-E are fairly similar so some of it may be of use.

You'd be better off searching for gold dust you stand a much better chance of finding some lol. I did have some sort of HC-E manual I believe, but it was in german so I'm not entirely sure as I dont know german and I cant seem to find it now :(

What has an LHC got to do with atomic power? I thoguht they used computer controlled magnets to push particles round in oppsite directions at insane speeds eventually smashing them together just to see what happens. Like when cavemen banged two pieces of flint together and created fire...

Can they do that on the M25 please? :lol: I find most of the time I'm in the fast lane and the two inside lanes are just lorries end to end, so you end up with 2 lanes of lorries and 1 lane left for cars.

I would like to refer to Highway Code 169: Do not hold up a long queue of traffic, especially if you are driving a large or slow-moving vehicle. Check your mirrors frequently, and if necessary, pull in where it is safe and let traffic pass.

I've never been stuck behind a really nice car. I mean I've been stuck behind Maseratis, TVR's, Aston's and the like but I find them a bit boring, maybe thats because the only really nice car I know of is my Daihatsu Charade and there so rare, I've seen a few others but never been stuck...

That's assuming it can reach 60? :lol: The air brake on the back might break off at about 60?

Ditto Only problem I've had with it is when the local council have changed the roads around. Only one place is really severe in that the tom tom says your in the middle of a big field when you actually on a nice shiny new bit of dual carriageway. :lol:

It's the rear, there 15 x 6.5, so nothing huge. I think that place is a little far away. Think it's up near Leeds. I did however just find arch rolling and arch flaring They are: Ayrshire and surrounding area Hertfordshire, bedfordshire, buckinghamshire, North London and Essex...

Hey all, Just got some nice new shiny alloys and need to get the guards rolled as there rubbing when I have weight in the back and over hard bumps. Does anyone know of anywhere I can get this done in Kent or London or neighbouring counties? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Cheers, Jack

The more you say it's SILLY AND DANGEROUS the more I want to do :P I got up at 9am on my day off to wash my car last wednesday. I'd say thats pretty insane. I couldn't get the all the mud off, I need to get the pressure washer out.

Completely off topic: Lol can we just stick some random energy efficent sticker on the car and try arguing that??
