It's it a FDM car? Wasn't aware we had any single mirror models in the UK! Bodywork looks mint mate, must be worth a couple of quid.
RE: The 205 milkfloat - ginge191 - 15-08-2013
Yes Stu, you have much to learn young one. It's someting the rest of europe never got round to doing; weight saving by removing a mirror

Surely a wing mirror weighs more than the interior mirror so its benefit would be aerodynamic?
RE: The 205 milkfloat - Norledge - 15-08-2013
My Dad's old nova GTE only had one mirror. Found it affected his aerodynamics under hard cornering and he was losing grip on that side. Well worth fitting a replacement imo.
RE: The 205 milkfloat - the milkman - 15-08-2013

nothing special just a standard xud7 205 (apart from exhaust) so decided to strip her out at the rear to see what hidden problems there was and wouldnt you know it i found this just behind the passenger rear interior panel

and not much been done just a bit of a tidy up untill it decided today that it wanted to shit the contents of its cooling system after moving it 4-6 yards. guess it didnt wanna be inspected for more rust today

oh also i think im due a good engine rebuild as im seeing a fair amount of white smoke........ p.s listen carefully you can hear the cooling doing a runner from the engine.
comments and criticism welcome

RE: The 205 milkfloat - ginge191 - 15-08-2013
Sounds absoloutely fine! no way near as some of the startups i have as a point of comparison.
Drop an XUD9, stiffen her up, you'll love it! get on it!
RE: The 205 milkfloat - silverzx - 15-08-2013
Clones + 40mm.
RE: The 205 milkfloat - kernow_joe - 15-08-2013
That rust is nothing! Mines got a lot more 2-3 big holes under the seats
RE: The 205 milkfloat - the milkman - 15-08-2013
Well my logic is an xud9 is only .1 more is there really much point in going through the hassle of changing? And also I have some 50mm springs coming next week would do with some bettet dampers though
RE: The 205 milkfloat - Dum-Dum - 15-08-2013
I know you sat shed but i think it might be more of a hen house with all that straw under the bonnet lol
How you getting on with insuring it?
RE: The 205 milkfloat - c.gerrard - 15-08-2013
I bet Stephen is laughing all the way to the bank!! Mate, you've been had
Glad you've finally got your hands on it, its seems like its been forever
One question, why is your project called milkfloat?
RE: The 205 milkfloat - the milkman - 15-08-2013
Well plans are insure her when its all welded rust free abd not leaking all over the drive. And as of the straw ect its been sat under a tree at stes so all just gathered everywhere really lol and carl for 200 quid I cant really complain dont see many 205 black 3doors about
