Adrian Flux are good - I have a Caterfield-type car (0-100 in 12s) insured through them on a 6000 mile per year policy for £600. And I'm 20-something with only 2 years NCB in central London, so any sane mortal should be able to get it for much less.

Yup, i am ! was speaking to someone at work, who is a biker, he said that you can bore the 918cc out to 954cc for quite abit more bhp. Anyway to be honest, with absolutely no experience behind the wheel of a westy, i think 140 bhp will be quite enough !

Mike's gone for the R1, it will be interesting to see the difference in performance between mine and his when they are finished !

Mike - the seats, onced fitted, are to fixed to stay and won't move, so speak to trevor about the seating position !

Any of you guys goin over to that meet on wednesday ? I might, if any of you lot are goin, sheck the midlands forum !

Been to look at a fiesta 1.25 today, as my little town car, it had alloys !

Cheers

Mike - i thought the seats looked pretty good anyway and they weren't too heavy either, what other options are they ? The jury is still out on the alloys though, i have read some bad reports about quality of BKracing, and to be honest as long as mine are black, i don't care, goin for stealth !

Has ryan already got a blower ? she just doesn't come out much !

Will have a word with the bloke from work with regards to 954cc !
