GOOD FOR KITCAR USE TOO
Jun 18th
DEI’s new Motorcycle Leg Shield is designed to prevent leg burns from hot exhausts, thus keeping riders safe and pain-free (these will be good for kitcars with side-exiting exhausts, of course).
The universal sized 8in x10in shields feature a heavy-duty outer shell with an insulated inner layer. They slip on and off easily and are made to last.
DEI’s Motorcycle Leg Shields simply go around the leg and fasten with easy-to-use hook-and-loop straps. They are fully adjustable and large enough to fit over leathers and riding gear. They are ideal for road use but are tough enough for the most extreme riding More >

UNDER PRESSURE!
Jun 18th
Traditionally, adjusting the fuel pressure on an EFI system using an in-rail regulator has involved replacing the original fixed rate pressure unit with a higher pressure fixed unit.
Finding the optimum pressure meant having to experiment with different units, but now Webcon has a better answer.
Webcon part WFR060 is a superb quality, in-rail, 0-5 bar adjustable regulator that simply replaces the existing fixed pressure unit and allows the user to accurately set the pressure to the most suitable level with just one unit.
The item is available now from stock and priced at £83.18 inc VAT.

A BRILLIANT SHINE FOR DETAILERS!
Jun 17th
I really rate the German brand, Sonax’s Xtreme range of car care products. These are aimed more at hardcore detailers. There are some amazing car care companies in Germany such as Menzerna, Scholl Concepts and of course, Sonax.
A product that I often reach for when one of my cars is in need of a pep up and I need to give it some gloss is Sonax Xtreme Brilliant Shine Detailer or ‘BSD’ to its friends! If you ‘stack’ the product i.e. put more than one layer on, you will be completely amazed at the result.

EMMA PEEL? NO, IT’S A PEEL FASTBACK
Jun 11th
I’m a big fan of the work of Steve Hall and his small yet bijou team at Hall’s Garage in Bourne, Lincolnshire. Within their stable sits the Tifosi brand of Austin-Healey Sprite based kits that currently features the Rana, Tifosi SS and Jacobs J.E.M.
A new addition is the range is a Sebring Sprite Fastback or rather a replica of the aluminium-bodied version produced by Robert Peel Sheet Metal Works in Kingston-upon-Thames in the sixties. Why Robert Peel? Well, the company’s founders, Fred Faulkner and Alec Goldie were located by a pub called yep, you’ve guessed it, The Robert Peel!

THE DARK SIDE
Jun 11th
I was out for a walk the other day and got talking to a bloke doing a nice job on cleaning his car (from a safe distance of course!). I always like to see what products other people use on their vehicles.
As it happens he was using some decent products and I was quietly impressed until I saw what he was applying to the faded black bumpers on his car. It smelt like old engine oil and when I challenged him he confirmed that is exactly what it was. He swore by it and reckons it brings the old plastic More >
