Sorry but I am unsure of the correct colour name so all I can refer to it as is 'Mustard' yellow. I saw this in Hornchurch this afternoon and wondered if this is the same car that I saw last week in North Romford. If I get to see this car again I'll attempt to photograph it and hopefully chat...

Is anyone from the East London and Essex area interested in meeting up? I know of a couple of decent pubs in the gerneral area off junction 29 of the M25 around the A127 locality so maybe these would serve the purpose. If you are interested how about sending me a message with your details and...

Guys I need to pick your brains.... what is the best way to get rid of aluminium oxidisation? One small area of my bonnet is suffering with this and a repair I did has failed to cure the problem hence I have to return to it. Is the best way to simply grind and clean the area and then prime...

Guys.... I am now starting to work on my car and am looking for some tools to enable me to clean the rust off the sills, panels, underbody etc. Of course there are the trusty old traditional wire brushes but I would like to look for something that will work that little bit faster. What would...

Guys.... I collect my car on Tuesday and one of the first jobs I would like to tackle is the suspension, I would like to make it stiffer. I am sure I can buy new springs with the rear ones being slightly stiffer than those on the front..... can the stronger rear springs be fitted to the front...
