STOP PRESS:

Carbon fibre strut brace cheaper than steel or alloy !!!

I have asked the seller the following:
[FONT=arial,sans-serif]
Is is adjustable ? Will it fit ABS and non ABS cars ?

Do you have a better picture you could post?

[/FONT]

And the seller replied

"[FONT=arial,sans-serif]hi, the item is very small I will put another photo next week, will fit with no abs "[/FONT]

So i asked a further question

"[FONT=arial,sans-serif]Thank you for getting back to me on the photo and the ABS issue. I still have a couple more questions if that is okay?

Does it require any drilling to the car?

Is it adjustable for length ?"

And then today I note that the seller has removed the listing and all their other items from ebay. Feel rather glad I didn't try to buy one.

Well done Matt often prudent to ask as many questions as possible on ebay, and the extra time asking saved you some grief....

 

[MattB2k]

Too right Alan. Never had a bad deal on there yet but always been ultra vigilant - that is the key.

Incidentally loads of reconditioned Barchetta engines on ebay here now.

Hi Al, Sorry to hear the back is still sore and hope you get better real soon.

Re engines, how much should one cost.

 

[Alan.D]

Thanks Kiry thinking of applying for this...http://www.npch.org/index.htm

I wouldn't pay anymore than £3-400 for a very good used engine £150-200 from the scrappy

Someone had to say something. I thought we had agreed elsewhere on the Forum that Blue was best

 

[Shelxs]

Nick don't fall for it! He's just looking for an opportunity to say red is best!
