What’s that about. Can you not register a CS in California any more? Did it get stricter?
I'd rather buy one with a well documented 50k on it than one which has done '28k' and has a patchy history...
Great car. Does anyone know what the floor mats are? I haven't seen them before.
First picture in a while! Getting my AC fixed before driving to Italy next week [ATTACH]
I'm doing a ~2500 mile road trip in the next few weeks and am wondering about putting some sort of temporary film over some of the carbon bits in...
Amazing - any more pics?
My entire set of switches is loose because a clip on the retaining panel has broken. I bought a new panel for 20 quid or something - haven’t got...
I can believe it’s right. Lotus seats are mid 20s too IIRC
There is definite play in one of the runners I removed from the seat. Rather than attempt to fix it immediately I just replaced both runners...

Aldous at AV Engineering is worth a call. Not sure if he still does PPIs but he's incredibly thorough, knows 430s very well and is based in Kent.
Bypass is the same, the bracket isn't there on the CS as far as I can tell. Will try to post some pics tomorrow. I can't see anything else nearby...
Nick Cartwright or Tim Walker (Walkersport), perhaps?
Hello I recently noticed one (both?) of my exhaust bypass valves have started rattling at certain revs, which is pretty annoying. I found this...
