Being a bit anal I thought I'd go round and torque all the wheel nuts up properly on the Chim while I'm putting the new alloys on. Does anyone know what torque they're supposed to be done to?

yes seem to remember reading on one page 60, then another 80, so went for middle ground. Anyone?

Good thinking. Spent ages looking for TVR info, but it didn't occur to me to Google the Sierra levels.
