No worries, this is what they look like fitted!
They look really neat.Only problem is if the rivnut in your seat rail starts spinning, you're going to have a job on undoing them. Attacking with a cutting disc will be tricky too.
I'm hoping if a rivnut spins on mine, I can just hold the grub screw in place with an allen-key, then undo the brass nut with a ratchet spanner.
Bedford - 18th of June
I missed Bylton (Outer) at the beginning of June due to another cracked sump. Sadly couldn't get it welded up in time...
Very kindly, Javelin let me keep the amount I spent on Blyton as credit to put towards/spend on another day. Just getting a clear calendar that's the problem. Everyone seems to be getting married or having stag do's this summer!
I've since had the ride height lifted a touch and the geometry re-done at Gemzoe Motorsport. Here's to sump preservation!

Well, I've done something I thought I'd never do. The Caterham is up for sale - advert in the classifieds section on here.
Got myself into a position of buying a dream car so both my toys have to go in order to free up funds.
I gave it a service and a good clean last night ready for any potential viewings.
The Seven has taught me a lot about car control and driving quickly so we have formed quite a bond over the last year or so. If I could keep it, I would.
Still not 100% sure I want to let it go...

I know you can’t advertise. But I’m asking directly for you to post a linky so that I may peruse.
Erm, “Peanut Gallery” seems to have done it for me. Peanut Gallery said:
Hey, this guy is selling a Caterham with exactly the same colour scheme as the one in this thread. Looks really good! - pity no photos of the greasy bits, I always look for those in an advert, it's why you would buy a Caterham anyway!

Yep... that’s my advert https://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/...

Thanks!Smitters said:
If I had the cash, this is about my perfect spec. Someone will get a great car.
Looking forward to the dream car thread. Are we allowed to have a guessing game to see what it is?
You can always sell an organ or something? Looking forward to the dream car thread. Are we allowed to have a guessing game to see what it is?
You may guess away to your heart's content

Whats the dream car you are getting op?
You'll have to join "Smitters" in the guessing game ;-)Smitters said:
I just sold a DVA'd dry-sump 1600 K, caged, LSD etc. Proper little track car but too much for the roads really and nowhere for my boy to sit. I'll have to wait a while before Sevening again.
I'm going to throw a wild guess out. Is the dream car rwd, mid engined, with a V6?
You'll have to keep on guessing I'm afraid ;-)I'm going to throw a wild guess out. Is the dream car rwd, mid engined, with a V6?
Still nope.
I'd love a GT4 but refuse to pay (and can't stretch to) the 20K over asking price they're going for now. Same applies to the GT3 but with more emphasis on the inability to stretch!
Just to break up the guessing game, here's a picture of the Caterham next to a mate's NG thing.

Fantastic to hear it's gone not just to someone who'll care for it, but a PHer as well.
Go on then, what's next?
A deposit has been placed on something today.... Go on then, what's next?
I want to be a nerd and do a grand reveal thread (not that anyone will be hugely bothered) which I’ll do once I pick it up and get some good photos.
Let’s just say the apple hasn’t fallen far from the tree. (I’ve bastardised that phrase slightly but think it works...?)
