F***ing Yanks!

Why do they have to call a bonnet "the hood"  Sorry mate, I should have read it first:o

Just looked again at the useless Haynes manual, and guess what?
It says nothing about the hood/roof of a vert.

As I said, try getting in touch with Grizzly (nice bloke who knows what he\'s chatting about, and owns a vert or two)

Cheers,
Sean:wave

MMM thats a good one? i\'m not to hot on Wheel offsets etc but i have +38\'s on my Red Fc.

I was told moons ago that it is suposed to be between +35 and +40 but i\'d do a search before taking my word for that.

I\'ve just measured one of my rims and it looks like its 73mm bore size and the Pcd is 114.3 basicly 115mm.

Hope this helps.

Chris

P.S. Is that your Vert on your Avtar (Spelling?)

t2 cabrio owner
