Re: Exterior Detail and Ceramic Coating ?

Cannot help with suggestions for detailer but I’ve just applied PPF myself to some newly painted & polished panels. You can purchase pre-cut sections. Just need spray bottle with tiny bit of soap solution, squeegee, hairdryer & a small craft knife. All nicely protected & saved a few quid...

Re: Gearbox Service

Had mine done at MGA Derby in 2020. Car was six years old & just fancied getting all fluids done. I’ve attached a breakdown of costs & the gearbox service was £495.00 plus VAT. Few pictures of the work… IMG_0815.jpeg IMG_0816.jpeg IMG_0817.jpeg IMG_0818.jpeg IMG_5736.jpeg Appreciate a bit of...

Re: Side skirts...

Just had a set painted/fitted. Purchased from eBay in white & had them changed to piano gloss black! Usually a set available on there… IMG_0564.jpeg IMG-20240319-WA0010.jpeg IMG-20240319-WA0006.jpeg Did mull over white/black & decided black. Prefer the contrast & tie in with other gloss ...

Re: Finally bagged one !

Stunning car! Imagine as good as new 👌

S&T stock some great cars. Guess they source from direct private purchase? Those beauties don’t come from WBAC/auctions.

Enjoy 👍

Re: Sill door seal attachment

Have a search on YouTube. There an in-depth video of an owner fitting new laminated sill plates. He removes these seals, as part of the process. From what I remember there are a series of clips & the best method is to fit the clips to the seal before clipping seal back to the metal. UK owner wit...

Re: Anti-Gravity Lithium Battery

As glib as it sounds it just means an upgrade or preventative maintenance item deferred till next year. Still hur...

Re: Anti-Gravity Lithium Battery

Thank you RPSN for the info. I’ve spoken to both AG UK & Dan who looks after my car at Elite & Performance Jags. Paul at AG sounds a very decent bloke. He did own an F-Type himself but by his own admission, didn’t fit in it. I wish he did still own it as he said he’d have put a AG in it! Dan...
