A LOT OF BOTTLE

When the driving’s done for the day or you’ve finally finished working on your kitcar there’s nothing more relaxing than enjoying a refreshing bottle of beer (other, less satisfying beverages are available). 

With this in mind, Mini Spares has thoughtfully provided a built in bottle opener on its key fob flash drive memory stick and now the memory stick also now has twice as much storage space as earlier versions. 

The USB connector retracts into the fob when not in use to ensure it isn’t damaged by the keys or loose change in your pocket.

Now you can go to the beer-fridge in More >

BACK IN THE GAME

Back in the fifties and sixties, Duckhams 20w-50 was the engine oil of choice. It was the world’s first multigrade oil that could be used all year round so that there was no need to change from summer to winter grade oils.

Now the legendary green oil is back, with a few improvements on the original 1956 version. It now conforms to API, SE, SF, SG, SH and SJ specifications and is ideal for any classic that requires a 20w-50 oil rather than the modern lighter grades.

It can be used confidently in any engine that was originally recommended to use Duckhams More >

When you’ve just got to finish your kitcar to the very highest standard there’s only really one choice of classic horn for the job, that’s right… a Mountney Classic Horn – resplendent in a tasteful chrome finish with brass screws that won’t tarnish the moment it hits the open road.

All modern MOTs require the car to have a horn in order to pass the annual road-worthiness test, so why not make it the best looking, most bling-tastic chrome offering you can possibly afford? 

The Mountney Classic Horn is a 12v, aesthetically pleasing hooter that won’t upset the feelings of any immaculately More >
