Paul Caden

Thanks for the info guys. An update: I have decided that I like the P1 so much (and the resale values are rubbish!) that I am going to keep it and buy it lots of presents inc. uprated brakes, droplinks, new exhaust system, bumpsteer and geometry checks. After all that I will be looking to optimise the performance side. Speaking of performance, is the next rolling road day being considered and are any dates in the pipeline yet? I would be keen to attend the next one...

I am wavering on turning in my P1 in favour of a WR1 (yes, I have found a new, unregistered one!) but I am having difficulty in putting a price on the car. The spec is: - Aug 2001 (Y) - 14 000 miles - FSH (every 6 months without fail!) - ScoobySport exhaust - Excellent condition Can anybody suggest a private retail price and a trade-in price?

<< Hi Paul & welcome to KentScoobies , would you like to go on our mailing list? >> Oh, go on then!

Paul (ex-lurker) signing in: MY01 P1, Scoobysport exhaust and erm! that's all...

<< I have a 2001 P1 and I noticed that the rev counter has started 'bouncing' on idle when the engine is warm. The revs would literally drop off until the engine very nearly stalls and then it picks back up again. There is also noticable engine 'stuttering' on hard acceleration. The car is going in to the local dealership for two days for them to try to diagnose the problem but I thought I would post a question on here first to see if there have been others with the same problem. Anybody else had this? >> Got the Beast back last night from the dealers - they replaced the boost solenoid. It seems better but I need to do a longer run than 1/4 mile from the dealer to home on the A20 to check it out Anyone recommend a good rolling road nearby (East Malling) that can do a full performance test and diagnostic?

<< maf? >> ??? p.s. try Elephant.co .uk for an insurance quote - I run a 2001 P1 and pay £700 fully comp
