That's fantastic, I completely understand that perspective. Could you tell me the make and model of the car, and roughly how long until it is turned in?

That must be revived

That construction is quite intriguing! Anticipating the return 🤘🏻

It will be some time before a build thread is created because there are a couple of other cars that need to be restored before this one. I will, however, record the build's progress once it begins. At the moment, it looks like this. Even though most people would think it's not worth saving, I'm hell-bent on doing just that.

I was a competitor with Norc before. Definitely post some pictures and maybe even start a thread for building it....

I only just discovered this post while searching for information about my car, so my response is a little delayed. I would post photos if I knew how to do it on my phone, but I am not sure if any of the previous posters are still interested in this terrible condition of the car.

It was a SC100 mounted on an SJ413 chassis; the paint was a pearlescent shade; however, the exact colour is a mystery to me. It possibly had a purple hue. Dave Wilby constructed it for Reg Gill, a Suzuki dealer in Leeds. Even though it had a pretty slick paint job, he still took it to NORC trials and used it for off-road racing. If anyone knows otherwise, please let me know. I believe I have understood everything above correctly.

It sounded interesting; I'd never heard of it before. Was the chassis an SJ with a sc100 body?

I was wondering if anyone had any information on the current status of the SC100/SJ hybrid that Dave Wilby developed. For some reason, I kept thinking about it while going through old trial photos, even though it wasn't actually in any of them. When I was a competitor at NORC trials around twenty years ago, I would see it.

If it flashes, it means there's a problem with the dashboard, such as the sensor or wiring in the Corrado VR6 I'm working on.

What are your thoughts? Is it conceivable for the warning light to illuminate without any actual overheating or coolant loss, unless the sensor is obviously malfunctioning?

Level and overheating are indicated by the red light.

Coolant level is what it will be for. The temperature gauge will display overheating. There is a chance that the level sender is malfunctioning.

I have filled up the coolant in my 1.5 evo petrol vehicle, and the warning light is still on. Do I have engine overheating or coolant loss on my hands when I see the red check coolant light?

Their system is quite intricate, so it's certainly doable if it's a diesel. You need to stop driving with the light on and get some coolant to refill it. It should remain off after being topped up; if it returns to its original state, it indicates an issue.

At the Volkswagen dealership, I had the water pump and thermostat replaced approximately two weeks ago after a warning light and coolant leak occurred. After two weeks, I noticed a slight decrease in the coolant level and the activation of an additional coolant light. Took it in for inspection at the same VW dealership. According to their findings, there is no indication of coolant leakage or overheating. There may be infrequent activation of the check coolant light, which indicates that trapped air bubbles are causing the coolant leak. However, I'm wondering if the air bubbles won't be released a few days rather than two weeks following the repair. Additionally, I was unable to take it to the VW dealer for inspection for two days because the coolant light remained illuminated throughout. Is it just me, or can the coolant light really remain on for no apparent reason? Many thanks

A suction pump, such as the Pela, might be useful if getting under things is an issue. Very few people here actually remove the hood to swap out the oil. The oil filter is located on top of the petrol tank, right? So far, I haven't heard of anyone changing the fluid in their manual box. My best guess is that it's a differential with a drain plug and a top-up plug. How far have you driven? An MB Indie should have no trouble keeping up with the digital age. I have accepted the receipts as proof of service regardless.

The whole servicing thing is really worrying me right now, so I'm grateful for the tip. One could argue that having "official" agents register customers for repairs and services is the way to go. Meanwhile, the cost of doing this is exorbitant. Concerning the South Coast, my name is South Coast West Sussex. Thank you in advance for any suggestions you may have.

I appreciate your counsel. I shall attempt.

I greatly appreciate your response. Every comment is exceedingly beneficial at this juncture.

I appreciate your understanding; kindly pardon my lack of familiarity with these terms. It is wonderful to be part of a community of individuals supporting me.
