Hi Chris, its only a 15min walk for me so yes, i have been known to have a mosey round!

Thanks for asking about HOL, i did quite a bit in 2024/25, replaced the rear subframe with one from an earlier CQ that i got blasted / powder coated. (close enough and bolted straight on) took that tip from you about Verkline and got a complete set of subframe / diff bushes from there :tup:Took ages for them to supply but i think they only make them in batches so must have been unlucky there.

At the same time i did the rear ball joints & wishbone bushes. was going to change the rear shocks but couldnt find any… with ot being the sport setup the standard shocks are too long. So i painted everything and fitted the inserts from a v6 cq i had in my parts stash. on the basis they were newer and fitted…

Somehow the clutch pedal came adrift, old plastic i think, only needed a small retainer for the return spring but ended up having to buy a 2nd hand pedal box to get it…

Anyway she is all back on her wheels now, needs an mot - i am not sure about the brakes though. Since all the banging and swearing at the back the abs has become a bit eager, i think i have duplicated an issue i used to have at the front, must have disturbed a sensor… i need to put some miles on her really but cant without the mot. I noticed a small knock at the back when going between forwards and backwards - i think the polys are a lot harder than the old ones, everything is done up to torque so not sure. I might actually go back to the rubber diff mounts as i cant shake the feeling thats what it is…

When it goes for test I’m guessing these will be issues, so haven't done it yet.

Hows your fleet…?;)
