North Hants 7 specialist

[Hunttheshunt]

Hi, can anyone recommend a 7 specialist in North Hampshire. I'm between Alton and Basingstoke so looking for someone fairly local..ideally.

I have new harnesses, tonneau and luggage cover that need fitting to my R500 and to be honest it's probably beyond me...you should see my shelves!!!


Thanks in anticipation

Oh for God's sake, just go and joing the Lotus 7 Club...or pop along to one of the local meetings. I'll wager that half the bods there will help you fit the tonneau and boot cover there and then and the other half will sort the harnesses out too. These are simply DIY jobs to be honest and beyond no one if they have the right tools (I bet you'll find one of those members will have a popper tool too)

Simple DIY indeed......my shelves look like they were erected by Salvador Dali

Thanks for the reminder about the 7 club my membership ran out last month...now renewed. I have a few other things that need doing as well so probably best to take it to a specialist, just don't want to have to trundle down to Dartford if I can avoid it.

Pugsey, assume you are looking forward to the R400...look forward to seeing you on the A339. Did I see you had your name down for the new M3 as well?

Other than a pub, what and where is the Phoenix??

Ah yes by what was the Lagonda restoration chappie.

Emailed said 7 specialist, sadly no response. Will have to pick up the phone I guess. Pet hate of mine..companies that have website's and email addresses and don't bother to look at their inbox's. Complete waste of time and money IMHO.

Rant over

Can anyone recommend what to do with my Caterham tillet seats. Getting a little obsessive I know...seats are fine but the cloth and belt surrounds look a little tatty. Anyone refurb them or do we just chuck them away and buy some new ones??

[Hunttheshunt]

Ah ha....found someone to refurb them so problem solved...sorry to dissapoint. £72 a side which I think is quite reasonable.
