A few bit's on there that are rather amusing... Not the least this...

Manual - A car in England is either a manual or an automatic (transmission). A manual has a gearstick. You would call them a stick or stick shift. When we say we drive a manual, you say you drive a stick. In England the only people who drive sticks are witches!!

(I'm sure that definately still aplies to Wizards too!)

Baz/Chuck... just sent Northwind Engineering an email about their seat mounting kit which allows a further 2" forward travel, just waiting on a response with price etc... Have either of you had any dealings with them before? Any good? Do you know if the kit is easy to install?

I bought a set of windows from them for my 94 and they were first class....
Never fitted or seen there seat kit but cant see it being that hard to fit....
