Now you don’t have to buy an Audi to get sequential indicators, because M-Style has released sequential LED tail lights for the BMW F30 (Pre LCI) 3 Series.

The lights have a smoother sequence than the lights we are accustom to seeing on Audis; the M-Style lights flow across the lampface, rather than flicking from one LED to the next, for a totally more classy effect.

M-Style’s new sequential lights are available in a choice of either a standard or smoked finish and they are ‘plug and play’ with no additional coding or alterations to the CAN-BUS system required.

However, should you require it, a fitting service is available at M-Style’s BMW specialist bodyshop in Romford, Essex.

Retail prices per pair: Smoked – £349.00 inc. VAT, Standard – £395.00 inc. VAT. plus fitting if
required.

MOMO has just launched a collapsible hub kit suitable when fitting an aftermarket steering wheel to the BMW Z4.

The MA2012R is produced in Italy from cast aluminium to fit the E89 Z4 model and includes a set of fixing bolts for attaching an aftermarket steering wheel with a 6 x 70mm PCD.
.
Price: £81.59 inc. VAT

MOMO is the company that invented and market-launched the first collapsible steering wheel hub that we use today. Compared to a rigid hub, a collapsible hub can absorb outstanding impacts thanks to a programmed deformation; this dramatically increases the safety level in case of a collision. With the largest hub kit application catalogue in the industry, offering fitments for hundreds of different vehicles, why look any further for your hub kit than the pioneering MOMO range?

It’s generally accepted that classic cars are going to leak oil, but the new stainless steel drip tray from Mini Spares will prevent oil drops from spoiling your garage floor or driveway.

The Mini Spares Stainless Steel Drip Tray can be ordered as part number TOOL32 and at just £13.72 inc VAT each it’s worth having a couple in your workshop to use as drip trays, parts washing trays and to hold disassembled components.

For classic Mini engines

Before the introduction of the MPI in 1997, Minis universally suffered from oil leaking past the clutch case gasket. Even new Minis suffered from this problem and were ‘corrected’ under warranty, but often the problem returned again.

In 1997 the clutch case and block gaskets were changed to a modern day technology Klinger type material in an attempt to eradicate the oil leaks.

Mini Spares now offers a Klinger material clutch housing gasket as part number GUG705563GM, replacing 22A2237B, to help prevent oil leaks.

The gasket measures 31 thou (0.81 mm) thick, but compresses to the correct size when fitted and torqued to 18lbs per sq ft.

The Klinger material clutch housing gasket seals without any sealant!

Although Klinger is a very expensive material the gasket is available from Mini Spares at just £10.79 inc. VAT

For classic Mini and A Series engines

Finding a satisfactory distributor for a classic Mini, or other A Series engines can be fraught with problems.

Mini Spares tried and tested numerous imported and British made examples. It found
that suppliers were often unable to advise what curves they had in them and discovered a marked disparity between the examples tested.

On many the base plate would stick and alter the curves sometimes jamming the distributor in full advance. It also proved difficult to get them to run correctly when using a timing light.

The rotor arm and dog at the bottom of the shaft were often found to be out of phase and in the wrong position in relation to the point at where the spark fired thus either the timing was way out or the rotor arm was hard up against the carbon bush in the top of the distributor cap causing the cap to burn away in the middle.

Mini Spares is committed to offering its customers only the best products and so took the decision to manufacture its own distributors to ensure that none of these faults would be present.

Surprisingly, the cost of doing things properly isn’t as much as one might think! Mini Spares now offers its own distributors from just £45.90 incl. VAT and just £70.20 incl. VAT for electronic versions.

The third and final incarnation of the Cavalier was a big improvement over its predecessors (and most earlier Vauxhalls) in terms of durability, with the rust problems that had plagued Vauxhall for years finally being conquered.

Fortunately, GAZ can provide them and GAZ dampers are bump and rebound adjustable too.

GAZ dampers can be adjusted to suit the conditions and driving style and can be altered by means of an easily accessible knob on the side of the units.

GAZ can set the dampers up for general road use but they will also be suitable for occasional track, slalom and sprint use or, alternatively, they can even be set up for serious racing use if you wish.

GAZ dampers feature a zinc plated body and protective plastic sleeve to keep them looking good and working well on your historic car for long into the future. All units are individually tested before leaving the factory and are covered by a two year warranty.
