Still had a sticky moment yesterday when I went to fire up the Touring. Yep you've guest it a familiar 'click'. To cut a long story short turned out the be the live feed to the starter motor, battery end. A proper clean up with some emery paper sorted the problem. I also replaced that small mucky in line filter for one twice the size. So far so good. The 2000 seems happier and a bit more lively too!

best, Paul Hill

Thanks for the responses. Cooks ferry were saying 4 hrs if they don't have any problems so I'll most likely give them a miss. I may have a word with munich legends but its a bit of a trek from east london when I have limited braking power.

It’s not a specialist job – any old mechanic/garage could do it for you. Cooks Ferry have probably had too many experiences of ancient brake pipes shearing when disturbed and then having to explain a bill double the estimate.

Good luck, Nick

Hi Nick
 
I hope to be able to come to Harewood with my "rally" prepared '02 (I gather that there is likely to be a few '02s coming).   I am also happy to come to the track day on the Monday at Croft and sit in with anyone who would like to "learn the line" around my local track.
 
Regards
 
Mike

Mike,

That’s brilliant, thank you.

Your presence at the track day really spreads the load and takes a lot of weight of my shoulders, it really is appreciated.

 

Looks like I will have an ‘02 stand at Harewood to rival Gaydon!

 

Nick

If you didn't already know this year is 35 years since the Turbo was launched. To Celebrate we are Guests of honour at the "Oktoberfest 2008" held at Gaydon Motor Musuem on the 10th August.

I hope you'll join me in celebrating at the Heritage Musuem, I look forward to seeing you there.

I will shortly be releasing a limited edition Turbo Coffee Mug too, & I still have some Turbo T-shirts available as well.

I shall also see some of you later this week on the Turbo Treffen.

Turbo Regards.
Richard.
PS. Also the upgraded K&N Air filters can be ordered via myself.
