Very nice! Looks like you have a few add-ons there, is that a BMC induction? Also lowered by they looks of it.
This is a general question to those with oil catch tanks fitted, is the one fitted here another option as the pipes fitted are not the usual ones tapped. Check the catch tank for oil collected as I doubt it is doing a great deal there as most are tapped into different breather pipes.

Lovely looking car, and very clean. The smile is a free extra.

I must confess I am learning about the car as I go along. I've not had to do a great deal with my motor bike & this is my first car. The guy I bought it from said he had to empty it about 4/5 times over the past year. I assumed he knew what he was doing as he is a mechanic in an old MG specialist repair centre.

It is there, honest. It's just a a tiny bit off from the edge of the bumper. Sounds really nice but is slightly hidden.

I saw that car yesterday on a private plate that reads 'Mark' He works for Moorside garage in Maidenhead, I don't know him but was speaking to his dad when I took my ZS in to them.
