Sheffy

You were spot on. Used loads of warm water and now it works! Nice one

Yeah thawed completely. I think she's tried using brute force and now there is very little resistance to both inner and outer handles as if something has snapped or similar.

My partner has just gone to open the passenger side door but the door was frozen shut. Now the door won't open using either the interior or exterior handle. I can't find anyone with a similar issue. Does anyone know what to do? Cheers

Replaced the 1.6 above with the 1.3 LX below. Bought at 70k-ish and now currently at 90k miles. Fitted coilovers, wheels and 22mm ARB from my red 1.6. Someone in a VW T5 hit this one and so I need a new NS wing. Spacers and big brakes (256mm) ready to go on. Going up near Newcastle next weekend to collect my AFH engine. Still need the 1.6 bits, should have thought ahead and got them from the 1.6 that was written off!

Hi there I have got a spare one. If too far from me (Bristol) then eBay ?

Uma, I have 14 inch Borbet A's on mine but I need new centre caps. Any ideas?

I'll certainly take you up on the offer.

Hi everyone! My written off 1.6 has been replaced with a 1.3. Still haven't located an AFH to drop into it and so I am considering other power options. I've read around and see it has been done. I'm thinking budget turbo build and was wandering if anyone knows if you can run a 5th injector setup to provide the fueling (similar to budget Mx5/eunos builds)? If anyone has any ideas, please share. Thanks!

Sadly written off. Pictures to follow. On the lookout for a favorit or felly! Let me know of any about!

Reconditioned mk1 mondeo calipers arrived. So all new front brakes ready to go on - just waiting for the slider bolts. Need AFH engine and straight through exhaust.

I believe it is as you suggested; glazed flywheel. When the clutch was first replaced at 55k miles, I think they didn't skim the glazed flywheel. I put a new clutch in and did the same. I believe it was the flywheel at fault although on visual inspection it looked acceptable.

So, gearbox replaced; flywheel skimmed; 4th clutch; new cable and (touch wood) it seems to be driving perfect!

Replaced clutch cable and instantly felt nicer. Then the 5th gear whistle came back and after a large knock/grinding I was left locked in 5th gear on the motorway, forcing me to use my breakdown cover. Clutch is still working but I think I've sheared my 5th gear. What gearbox is best with the AFH? Thanks

Hi everyone, I am going to attempt the windscreen repair soon as I presume it is rust around the surround lifting the seal and causing the leak. my question is can I remove the screen and refit the seal or should I smash it through and pay the £75 replacement excess? thanks
