The pirellis I run are hard as nails so actually not expensive to run... Also not that impressive in terms of grip over semi slicks.

Unfortunately, the captive nut for the passenger seat which holds the seatbelt & runner has departed company from the CF seat. So I won't be taking any passengers out on Monday... I bought the MOG seats almost two years ago and they're arranging free collection, replacement and return from Germany. Now that's great service! ...On the plus side, my car will be a little lighter than normal! :groupjump: ...also, I've just polished my vx :rolleyes:, it's only the second time I've done so since buying it! :mellow: Does that mean I'll go faster now? :rolleyes:

I've had that issue before... unfortunately the MOG's are light but a little on the fragile side. If you don't fancy sending it back to Germany, just drill a hole in the back panel and glue another captive nut in there, it's a reletively easy job.
