Yours will not be restricted, it is the full fat 105bhp :D They never restricted the ZR's. Cheers Dave

You got SDi injectors etc fitted? If so, i am sure you will be very happy for a very long time, i know i am!!

Failing that, you could also get a ZR diesel, and once tuned, you'll be looking at 150bhp+ and 240+ftlb of torque.

Thanks guys, much appreciated. Well worth the hard work. Cheers Dave

My Addendums that is:bigsmile: You may remember my previous threads about my attempt at re-furbing. So from these crackle effect MGZR wheels: To these: Not bad for a virgin re-furber eh!! They are not absolutely perfect, but good enough till i find some more time to do them properly...

I think THIS or This: May just rid the world of all the Fiat Multiplas in existence!! Cheers Dave

Wouldn't fancy the job of cleaning that Porsche!! I hit a Monk Jack deer one in a mini bus through the city of Peterborough, scared the bejesus out of me. Knowing there was adults/children around, i thought i had hit a human. This 'thing' just ran infront of me, and had no time to hit the...

Following on from Bens' thread, about learning to work on cars, what's the worst mistake you've made on your car? My most stupid mistake was while upgrading my brakes. Changed the disks no problem, then went to fit the carriers/calipers. They fitted great with no hiccups, then went to bleed...

As above really. I knew nothing about doing stuff to cars, up to a few years ago (i'm 34 now!) I bought my first rover 4 years ago, joined a rover forum, and got information from the forum. Has saved me a fortune doing things myself, thanks to the forums i belong to. You only really learn...

Almost finished the second alloy, on/off, it has taken 3 weeks or so at the moment. Cheers Dave

I have seen the car since the picture has been taken, the whole car is covered in stickers of fairies. Fortunately it is driven by a woman, if i was her hubby/boyfriend, i wouldn't be seen dead in it!! Cheers Dave

When i came to doing the most damaged wheel, i cheated a bit. I used a electric sander with a triangular end to it, to rub down the worst bits. Managed to grind out most of the damage, and the paint fills in the tiny imperfections. A sander like this one: For the other wheels, i used the...

My car is fluffy toy free, but i did take a pic of a car ages ago at a pub i was at: Cheers Dave

As most of you will be aware, i am currently re-furbing a set of Streetwise 17" Addendums. I have now completed 1 wheel, and looks pretty good i reckon. This is the sort of damage that was on the wheels before i started: This is how the wheel looks now, this was the most badly damaged...

Same here, always done work to my car. The only time i haven't is when i need special equipment to fit the item, things such as changing suspension. Otherwise, everything else is all done by lil' ol' me. I have re-mapped my car (using maps supplied to me), changed brake set ups, and loads of...
