Exmoor '07
Just to say that I'm just back from today's Exmoor and I thought it was excellent - a good variety of hills and very well organised (unless you happened to fail High Bray!).
My own particular hang up continues to be those three sections in the woods - Jimmys, Badgers and Rodney's Revenge. Watching Emma clear the first two of these was a bit of a revelation - pretty awesome driving!

165 x 15 TYRES FOR SALE
FOR
I have for sale a quantity of 35 brand new & unused Motorway remould steel braced tyres size 165x15 [ Michelin MX pattern, ACTC approved & considered by many to be the best pattern available]. Additionally I have a matching quantity of brand new & unused 155/165x15 inner tubes. All have been dark stored in cool conditions. I had the tyres specially made. A few are moulded on Michelin carcasses, and I can select these if anyone would particularly like them. Tyres are £25 each individually, £22 each for a minimum of six, £20 each for a minimum of ten & tubes £4 each any quantity. I’d prefer that they are collected (from Hertfordshire AL8), but I’m willing to deliver or meet up with you for the cost of the fuel up to a reasonable distance. In absolute extreme circumstances I will send by courier – the cost would be £10 per 2 tyres. I’d prefer to sell in lots rather than singles.

Class 1 Classic trials car - complete and ready to compete
Class 1 Classic trials car - complete and ready to compete
1990 VW Golf Mk2 1300, taxed til May, MOT til Autumn
Sump/engine guard, with mud/spray deflectors
All underside pipes and lines plated, rear silencer protection
Front suspension uprated and raised, rear suspension raised and adjustable height
Fire extinguisher & battery tie down, straps for 2 spare wheels and loads of other useful mods.
Over the last 3 years I've fitted all new suspension components, bushes, top mounts, dampers and steering rack, new clutch and various other parts.
Also approx 8off 185x14 (4 brand new) and 3off 165x13 Colway tyres with tubes and wheels to match
No great competition pedigree, but this is more down to the driver than the car, which has always performed very reliably - also really needs a larger engine.
To assist with this I also have an 1800cc engine (43K miles) with Weber carburettor, brand new 5 speed low ratio (4.84:1 final drive) gearbox and most of the other bits you need to effect the conversion (needs about £150-300 more depending on how many new you use)
I'm selling this reluctantly because of work commitments, and would be really pleased to see someone continue to compete and develop the car. I'm looking for about £500 for the car, £250 for the 1800 engine conversion parts and £100 for the tyres & wheels, but less if you take it all together.
It's all located in N. Bristol except the engine (about 25 miles away in Stonehouse). I'd be happy to deliver the car and other bits before the insurance runs out (Feb 9th) but you need a van, trailer or similar to collect the engine.
Contact me, by telephone - home 0117-9507678, office 01454-643307, mobile 07974-237240, email ctclarke@blueyonder.co.uk or through the forum
Finally can I say how much I've enjoyed competing in classis trials and thank all those who've provided help or encouragement.
