Quite regular - 25th next Hot Marques? Next KH date after this I've got (or rather next one Id choose to be at & comfortable with standard of driving & cars that is) is Friday 6th April evening 6 till 8. Quite a good date as its a bank holiday which means I@m nice & relaxed when I arrive. Organised by Dreadnought - do u want more details???

The Cup steering wheel IS a thing of beauty. Really transforms the feel of the driving experience. :)
Although I recommend driving with gloves now to avoid sweat flattening the suede!
Does that mean that you have to wear gloves all the time, even when nipping down the shop for a paper??!! :wink:

"The brake cooling conversion on the Mk1 is excellent. It is more than just the Cup ducts that Andy Duncan refers to. It consists of closing up the front underside vents, routing piping through the rear of the inner front wheel arch, and directing it towards the back of the brakes. It's hard to see the full install, but you get this additional scoop inside the wheelarch..."

Thanks OC _ where did u get this kit from. Ive been on Carnewal looking at brake cooling, but the kit there seems different to what you pasted?

Thanks for the help here & to Glenn for original post.
