Dan Jude aka Roadboy ------- contact details?

Hi,

Does anyone have any up to date contact details for Dan Jude aka roadboy? I've been trying to get a hold of him for a few weeks now to get a date for the return of my Type 23 but no response on the details I have. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Derek

Re: Wiper wont work........

Doesnt appear to be the fuse :-( My fear was that it was the motor. Other than not working is there any other tell tale signs? Also (not being technically or mechanically minded) it says online that to replace the original motor costs approx £400? Is this true? Eliseparts is the source of that price...

Wiper wont work........

Ok well the recent frost appears to have cost me the use of my window wiper. Long story short is that I tried to use it early one morning........turns out the wiper was still frozen to the window so it didnt move. Once the window had thawed out completely I tried the wiper but it only covered half t...

Re: Decent Insurer for Non Lotus?

I was always with Elephant.co.uk for years and couldnt find anyone who even got close to matching or beating there price for the Lotus or the Crossfire. This year I stumbled across Chaucer Direct who use Llyods of London and they were about 2/300 cheaper for both cars. Well worth a look. Just google...

Re: Battery Warning Light?

Thanks for the reply guys. I am in the AA with parts and labour. How easy a job is the altenator? The battery itself has only been in about 3 months so should have an ok charge in it.

Re: Cars a bit stuttery. Any ideas?

If the Management light keeps coming on you should be able to get a read of it and it'll tell you what the ECU thinks it is. Are the plugs looking OK? None of them a funny colour? All the AA said was it was a mis-fire in cylinder 4.........he initially said coil pack and or plugs but when I said bo...

Re: Cars a bit stuttery. Any ideas?

Thanks for all the suggestions. Will wait till tomorrow till this rain has dried up and check what's been mentioned. Just thought it odd that after running car for about 45/50 miles on the red (twice in a row :-( ) it starts to stutter.
