Does anybody have any experience of using V & G Agricultural Services - West Wycombe ? The rear cross member has finally lost the will to live on my Series 3 and I've decided to do the job properly (mainly as the rest is buggered to) and replace the chassis. I hoped these guys could carry it out...

Can anyone tell me the nut/bolt size/pattern for a series 3 2.25 petrol front pipe to manifold connection ? can't seem to get the details anywhere and not too happy leaving the PO's homemade brass efforts on my new exhaust !!

I had to replace the bowls on my '76 S3 and ordered a set from Paddocks however i lined them up to the spaces today and the hole pattern is totally different and the screws provided wouldn't have secured the bowl into the original holes, i can't find any other provider for these parts, at the...

My series 3 is starting to come together and i am hoping soon to set off on a few mini adventures in the UK, nothing crazy but just to settle her in. I was wondering what essentials i should have in the back, at the minute there is nothing but the starting handle, some water, and a bit of oil...

It looks like the steering on my 1976 S3 is need of sorting, car currently wobbles and swerves at speed and is incredibly heavy at slow speeds. Unfortunately determining the problem and subsequently fixing it is beyond my capabilities. Does anyone know a garage in Buckinghamshire that could do...

My 1976 2.25 petrol series 3 passed its MOT yesterday but once they tried to get it off the ramp, having driven to the garage without a problem it refused to start. Tested the battery and it was fine and it had to be push started. Once i got it home (a 2 minute drive) i turned it off and it...

Ive just taken delivery of my new toy, a 1976 series 3. Its had a bit of work done to it and i can see that it has had a kenlowe fan fitted. Ive never had one before and im not sure what i should do with it, if anything. It seems to have settings so want to make sure its right. Any advice would...
