Those as everyday and Cesaros as track wheels sounds good. You'll be getting tyres swapped over more regularly for track so makes sense the Cesaros pick up more wear and tear?

Oooo shiney, i approve.
Could be shineyer lol doubt it will stay clean though, need to test it tomo if it's not raining, check the cable ties are holding on the boots no leaks etc, should be ok, if not I'll pop get some huge one's!
True, mine are mirrored..lol
I'll get some more pics tomo, tried emailing mine from phone not working etc..
But Ive got my tyres and mo's sorted, then putting them on i have made a school boy error and some how killed one of the threads on the drivers side hub! not quite figured how ill get round it yet..
Angry is understated, this is why you dot rush things...
Possible to helicoil a hub? If not just whip it off and fit a new bearing and inner race I guess? And move to studs and nuts if you haven't already :)
i've got spare hubs scott if you need one, postage only
Cheers for the offer Jeff, I'll go look at it in a bit in better light, see whats what, then if i cant figure it out, I'll take it to my local garage etc, at worst i miss trax....

Pissed off is not the correct thing to describe my annoyance!
Cant afford to sort it for Trax, no time to do it either..
Think I'm selling or braking it, as Ive not used it enough in the last 3 years, it just a burden and money pit i cant afford to do any more, on the plus side the freshly blasted/powder coated MO's look ace! lol

I'll think it over this weekend what I'm going to do with the car, as it's tax runs out the end of September too, and I'm not re-taxing it this year unless I'm using it.
But I'm might sit down and work out what it's worth in bit's and what i want for it as a hole car inc all parts/spares/wheels etc etc...
Scott
Holy moly those wheels look ace!
That does look the part with the mo's!
If you do sort a CV and need a hand, I'm not far!
Bold move - thats paid off. Nice work Mr Scott.
Get a CV and kick its teeth in around silverstone for misbehaving you big wuss lol
Don't have the cash or time to chase it up mate...Quote:

Dude Ive given up, Ive spent too much and wasted time doing what i have, long story, just cutting my losses...
:cry:
Well thats it, end of an era for me on this one, not an easy decision to make, nore a choice i wanted, but i had to do some thing as Ive got to many cars and cant use them all! :(
So The new owner drove down to mine this morning for 10.00am left his at 4.30am to get here, he's now got about an 8hr drive back leaving mine at 11.30am.
Was hard to see here go, but i know Ive got the loon to look forward to doing.:)

THE END... :cry:
Hopefully I'll see this at knockhill sometime then :)
I'm sure the big bundle of cash will sooth the feeling of loss lol
So let me get this straight, you put it on Ebay the guy clicked Buy it now. Paid deposit via Paypal and turned up, paid up, and fecked off?
Now that's something you don't hear about very often!
lol to put it that way yep!
Trust me Ive had my fair share of serious messes with this car, so i was shocked at how simple it was too!
I was worried that he would turn up with a Cheque etc, but nope all nice real hard cash, he clicked the BIN button, paid a deposit (thats cleared in my bank) and then drove down, we chatted for about hr and took the car for small stint round the block, loaded it up, sing log book cash fully counted, off he goes!
End of an era then scotty boy :(
Does he have any plans for it at all?
