If we get to a level that might get a cheaper price I'm happy to order a few sets for re-sale

sorry guys I will have to be taken of the list, I could not wait this long and had to have a pair of Lotus own brand wishbones. I still have a job sitting down due to the cost, but at least I won't have to lie to my insurance company when they ask me if it's all standard. Good luck guys.

As suspected the M14's are a problem. Not only is M14 an oddball (tends to jump straight from M12 to M16) but in fine pitch? Rocking horse 5hit were the words used :evil:
I've been quoted £2.80 each - yes, that's Two Pounds and Eighty pence each :shock: for one friggin nut.
Even that is subject to a min order of 50 and 'on the back of another order' (from Germany) so delivery may be 4 to 6 weeks.

In context the M12's are £0.50 each

I guess that kills it. :oops:

No problem, mate.

Was going to bring it anyway (and my verniers) 'cos i thought it may be useful!

Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it


...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

Well done G - good work.

You can leave them at my gaff so there's a central depository for people to view them at.
