Thought I'd best make an account on these forums having picked up a mk1 Clipper Cabriolet last week! I'm new to this forum but I have been on the mk2oc for almost a year now, I have a 1.6 Driver which is currently being rebuilt and fitted with a 2.0 16v ABF.
Got a few questions so I'll probably hit the technical forums tomorrow…
For now, hello!
Matt

This is eventually going to be my girlfriends car when she passes her test (we're both 22 and it was easier for me to drive first with my passion for cars) but for now it's looking likely that I may get the mk1 on the road as my daily and sell the e46 as it's a very thirsty 2.5 straight six.
Here's a pic of my cars and the wheels we picked up for the cabby for cheap, going to do a refurb and tyres.

Edit; another mod I've remembered is the Weber carb that replaced what I'm guessing was a rubbish Pierburg like my mk2 had.

Just popped a request to join in. I've not seen the Derby, but I would have loved it if I'd seen it around!
