Sorry to hear of the conflagration - you are very welcome to rummage through my collection of parts - probably got most parts you need.
Digijet or Digifant?
I'm in Ross-on-Wye though not at home this weekend.

Blimey Rog, sorry to hear about that, for piccies look at the faqs at the top of the page, they need to be downloaded on a website first, like Muchos, then the url picked up and slapped in here with the Img tags at either end. You will I think, need yo reduce your pic size for muchos, i dont know about other hosting sites, several digicamera programs will tell you how to do this.

Really upset to hear that Roger...

Funny day yesterday, Drew's gearbox fell out in Uxbridge (see GC), will there be a third?

Yes, good idea, put up a list of bits you will need, and we'll go rooting about in our sheds and garages.

I can let you have all the engine electronics and wiring loom if it's a 2.1 WBX but not for a week.

Chin up!
