I took over £200 because I needed a turbo carb and montego plenum. Found them but they were way overpriced so I thought fuck it. Now I'm struggling to find a montego plenum anywhere *oh well*

Why do you need a montego plenum? The metro and montego ones are identical other than the inlet. and the Montego inlet is no more use than the metro one if fitting an IC.

Get a metro one and make a new inlet, or get Jon F to do a conversion on it.

The Montego one has the inlet coming off straight where as the metro has it coming off underneath, coming off straight would make things so much easier in terms of fitting everything in and keeping it tidy. I'm really not confident enough to cut into it and re-weld it myself and I don't imagine Pete would want to either (I don't trust him to not balls it up) and the bloke at Bingley wanted £75 for a Metro one that had the straight inlet and he'd painted. I'm not paying £75 for one.

i went, was my first time and i got bored after an hour or so. i forgot to draw out some cash and only had £1 and diddnt have breakfast. i was parked right at the front of the gates, so i asked one of the guys if i went out to get money could i come back in, he said yes. so i nipped out to get some money came back and someone else was on the door and wouldnt let me in! he told me it was full... i pointed to my spot and he still refused. that really pissed me off. anyway i ended up having to park over the road right at the back.

I apologise to Johnnysti for keeping him talking for an hour on two seperate occasions *happy*


lol it was good to meet up!! Now get the car done and get shot of the ICE!! You wont need it!!

I didn't get away from the stand all day so didn't get to see very much. Not to sure what was going on with the BMW Minis taking up quite a bit of space with other show cars. Also a bit pissed off having to pay £15 for a wrist band to stand next to my car all day. They only sent two wrist bands with the details which is very poor.

Other than that, the show worked for us and the response and interest was overwhelming!!

Yeah, I spotted those too and though he was taking the piss a bit. A lot of overpriced tat this year, though a couple of decent auto traders were there too, mustn't tar them all with the same brush.

I noticed nobody was tupid enough to pay the asking price for them though, as they were still there at 3.45.

Yeah, we walked past again at just after 2pm I think and he'd knocked them down. I was going to get one but I saw one of the blokes selling them whisper to his mate 'she's back to buy it' so I didn't, just because he thought I would *happy*

I'm sure I'll see them again at the next show.
