    We used to race off road on the Sundays and indoor on Friday nights. I had the Mardave Mini with the foam tyres. Remember the wide touring cars too and the Beemers! Had the monster truck beetle as well [emoji1303][emoji1303] Sent from my VOG-L09 using Tapatalk

    Which battery? LCR 225 2004 plate

    Brilliant, thank you, great advice [emoji1303][emoji1303] I'll see what I can sort out, I guess the higher the cold cranking ability the better [emoji1303][emoji1303] Sent from my VOG-L09 using Tapatalk

    Which battery? LCR 225 2004 plate

    Hi all, Which specific battery should I be using? I can see they come in all sorts of sizes and cold cranking ratings etc? The one in the car at the moment is smaller than the previous one which may explain the lazier starting? Help appreciated [emoji1303][emoji1303] Sent from my VOG-L09...

    How did you get the broken part of the pcv elbow pipe out? Mine has spilt there and is proving difficult to remove, same as the other end of the elbow into the T piece... Sent from my VOG-L09 using Tapatalk

    Thanks [emoji1303] I have a replacement part for the bit on the left of that T piece on the far right of the pic in the link.
