Re: [FINALIZED] 1000 watt 12V DC to 220V AC Portable Inverter with USB port - BNIB

I am changing the head unit on the Mighty Punto and considering a PS2 install. Trying to work out the best way to do it and the inverter caught my eye

How long are the crocodile clip cables (roughly). Will it reach battery and into the cabin to have this under a seat?

Re: Simply Japanese - Sunday 31st July - Beaulieu Motor Museum

Didn't really get a chance to speak to anyone, apologies.

Was a good event, but will leave the nephews at home next time: never been round the museum so quick in my life!

Re: Simply Japanese - Sunday 31st July - Beaulieu Motor Museum

I cannot currently commit to a Japanese car due to brother's girlfriend's family related hospital stuff. But will aim to be down still, even if it means coming in the Punto. From what I understand if the rules are interpreted very strictly you'll have to park it in the main car park and potentially...

Mechanic is based just outside of Hailsham. I appreciate its a bit of distance but he has some experience of dealing with these cars (I have had mine for over 13 years).

Re: Proud owner of my first Mr2 mk1 - But have a couple of problems

I'd love to give it a crack myself but I live in flats so the car is in a car park and have nowhere to work on it. Before purchasing I checked the MOT history and it did have these failures: Reason(s) for failure - Nearside Front Vehicle structure has excessive corrosion, seriously affecting its st...

Re: Proud owner of my first Mr2 mk1 - But have a couple of problems

Don't go condemning it yet, it all depends on where the rust is. Bottom line is with a MK1 unless you rebuild from the ground up you are likely to require some form of welding. in 13 years I have had the sills done twice, the wheel arches twice and the underneath once. it needs further welding to av...
