Proctas Rover Metro GTA 16v

[procta]

bought a few things off the bay of e, one little gem was the proper rover metro rubber mats, these are very hard to get hold now!
not bad for 20 quid posted!




also an Austin rover tax disc holder, to replace the cheap post office one. plus this adds that more OEM to the car too






the old one




my mate is scrapping his R25, so he gave me the manifold heat sheild off it

need to rob the bracket off the car, as that's still on the car.
hence why there is a bolt missing.
also while I was on the bay of E, I bought a better cowling for the 306, and one for the metro, not bad for 20 quid posted.

but a major disaster was ready to happen any time!
my bonnet release was taking a bit to open,
had a check and found this!

the connector is on by one strand of wire!!!
id have been f*cked if that snapped!
which it did when I removed the wire to fit a universal one, which turned out to be a failure,
so 45 quid from rimmbros for a OEM replacement one, as there are no metros up here,
that's on its way in the post.
part from that, the cars been great to drive, as I was using it for a bit, forgot how good the 306 was!
