[Quantum Owners] Wanted - Mk1 or Coupe

2011-03-20 Thread Dave the Subbie
No, not for me - I have enough problems!

A friend is looking for a good Coupe. He's seen my son's Coupe and my
Mk1 and wants one for his son. I've told him that a Mk1 would be hard
to find, but that Coupes come up from time to time.

He has sensible money to spend (say £1,000 for the right car?) and is
a professional mechanic. Sensibly, he'd rather spend the money on a
good one than buy a project, as he's already busy with other things. A
good quality build and ready-to-use would be more important than a
super-high spec box of bits.

Obviously, we'll be keeping an eye on ebay, but if anyone has anything
hanging around that isn't getting the use it deserves, please drop me
a line.

Dave.

[Quantum Owners] Footman James Insurance Increase

2011-03-20 Thread Dave English
Hi All.

It looks like Footman James have bumped up the insurance cost a bit.
I've just received my insurance renewal, it was just under £180 last
year, and now it's £202.46.
If anyone has just received their renewal and it's still at the old
rate, please let me know and I'll get on to FJ and remind them I'm a
club member.

Dave

PS. Just clocked up 170,000 miles, I may have to think about
reconditioning the engine in another 100,000 or so!

[Quantum Owners] Re: Footman James Insurance Increase

2011-03-20 Thread Steve Brabazon
Hi Dave,

My renewal premium in January with Footman James was around £192. I
ended up going elsewhere as I got a better quote from another company.

My daughter was quoted just over £180 three weeks ago!

[Quantum Owners] Brake servo 2+2

2011-03-20 Thread geoff ward
Finally got round to changing the brake servo on Caroles 2+2 this weekend,
the old one had a small air leak. It did not seem to affect the brakes at
all, but it sure did make the fuel injected Zetec engine run very lumpy. It
was at its worst on the over run and would not tick over nicely, now it is
greatly improved and ticks over at a rock steady 800rpm. Well worth a ride
over to Hemel Hempstead to collect it, thank you very much Ian (barnacle)
for the servo and the coffee! I am looking forward to seeing your Fiat
powered beast at Stoneleigh.
Regards, Geoff.

Hi Steve.

Thanks for the info, looks like I may have to phone them and check up.
I'll update here when I get an answer.

Also I had a quick look at your webpage Steve, and have a quick
question. Is that a Ginetta G26 towing your donor in the first
picture?
