Little Bob Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 With full cage, travelling south - outside lane obviously. You must be a hardy chap (or lady), I was freezing even in the tin top. Respect. C7 GTE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTD Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Hmmm - could have been me, though I prefer to call it Old English White (on the cover of September's Low Flying!) Just picked it up from a failed MoT at Robe and Hitchens ☹️ on my way to leave it in the staff car park at Gatwick. Though I believe that Fast Lady had been there just before me - not sure if she has a yellow caged-up car? And yes, it was freezing - and I'm driving it home tonight!

GTD Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Oooh - and I've just noticed that we share almost the same registration number!! C7 GTE and C7 GTD 😬 here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastlady Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Yep GTD I was indeed there earlier yesterday, but my car is red with aero and FIA bar and not yellow with a cage! Also came back with an MoT failure too ☹️ - was yours on emissions as well? ☹️ Think I might have a trip to Emerald coming up rather sooner than I'd budgeted for to fix it!

GTD Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Yeah - they told me you had the same problem. I've got my car booked in with a tame garage in Littlehampton next week. They are going to refit my original catalytic convertor exhaust and give that a go. You're welcome to borrow it if it works for me? here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastlady Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 OK thanks GTD, that might be worth a try - assuming your car's also a K! Though have to admit mine was quite a long way out on HC figures (and it already has a cat, though that may well be knackered it appears!) so I'm not sure it will. Also what exhaust system do you have? I've got Powerspeed 4-2-1 with the original silencer on currently, so will the primaries fit yours or would it have to be a complete 'transplant'? Garage details in Littlehampton would definitely be worth having though! 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Bob Posted March 23, 2007 Author Share Posted March 23, 2007 Pretty sure it was yellow - maybe orange at a push. I had noticed that our reg's were sequential, unfortunately mine doesn't relate to my initials though! C7 GTE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTD Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 If orange, then must be someone else!! Ah well - FL, yes mine's a K and like you I'd need to put the old primaries back on - will let you know how it goes after the MoT this Thursday. I have to confess to feeling a bit let down by the garage - I hadn't realised that they were no longer doing Caterham's MoT's these days after being sold into new management. They couldn't fix the hazard light, they nearly fitted a catalyst that I hadn't asked for, only told me when I picked up the car that the hand brake was below standard and all in all didn't seem that switched on! I won't take it back there for the re-test! here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyboy Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Could've been me..ahh...not yellow any more am i....However I can attest it was very cold! Geoff....Let me know if there's anything I can do to help!! I'm about most of this week!

GTD Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Dan - reckon it was you then - how strange that the three of us should have been trogging down the M23 that lunchtime! Going to get the garage in Littlehampton to sort it out for me! here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyboy Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Very sensible geoff....I was about to clean off the persuader (10lb sledge hammer) to help sort the car mate 😬 😬 😬 Dannyboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
