It should (I think) now be a case of going to them direct?

Believe anybody will be able to order them now, as theve got the moulds, but will probably cost bit more as its not a group order ?

I explained about the fact that a number of members take their cars off the road about now and carry out work, rebuild, enhancements etc and he's happy to carry 3 black, a blue and a red set as stock.
He's also happy to extend the 30% discount for members in to the foreseeable future


Looks like LEC will keep the 30% discount.

Anymore orders will have to be made through Amber performance
So, here's the e-mail address
james@amber-performance.co.uk

Here's the site's URL (working now):
http://www.amber-performance.co.uk/

...and here's the telephone number:
0845 2600015, ask for James and mention LEC and the M100 group buy for the 'coolant hose kit'.

Price
Includes 30% discount and VAT

Hoses:- £167.33
SS clips:- £34.80
plus postage

Colours

The SE buyers will also need clip for the main radiator hose:-

Swivel clip hose to anti-roll bar A100W6455F £1.31 from SJ`s. Better of using 2 to keep the hose in shape.

Monty, to think that pinky 1 will live on albeit in cloned pipes in over 20 other Elans must give you a certain satisfaction :wink:

So all credit to LEC's very own Beavis & Butt Head, for all their efforts in making this one happen :wink: .

Now has anyone got an idiots guide on how to fit them :oops: ?

Clucking Bell!

Do you guys all belong to single income families or something! Always someone at home to sign for parcels?
I got a phonecall from TNT yesterday saying they were trying to deliver. I explained that I was at work and that I'd be home at 3o'clock - they agreed to reschedule for a post 3o'clock delivery. When I got home I had two cards saying that they'd tried, one timed at 08:35 and the other at 14:15! Tossers!

They're due to try again this morning and I'll be right outside the front door stripping the Flying Cat project. I might prop one of the shotguns up against the door post so that I can frog march the delivery-bastard up the drive with his boxes!

:twisted:

Just an observation.

The yellow hoses are a lemon colour (much lighter than Norfolk Mustard) - in case anyone's thinking of ordering them.
I have red for Stripey and yellow for the Cat.

Will it be sent to those who already have the kit? I assume we need to tell James that we are S2 types?
