So did I, would have been apt, yes! My memory could be failing me but I don't think they had MacPherson struts on the rear? Only the front? Therefore it would be a case of acquiring separate lowering springs rather than a lowering coilover To be pedantic, coilover is just a name for MacPherson strut, whether it's in the context of lowering or not! Therefore these sort of adverts saying its got coilovers on the front is like saying it's got wheels on the back 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puddlethumper Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Back in the mid 70's I lived not far from Blackbushe airport, which was an ex ww2 left over, and you could take whatever heap you had at the time and razz it about. Security was non existent in those days. I was there one afternoon with a heap, can't remember what, and John was there with the first edition Beast testing it on the runway. I had a quick chat with him when he had the bonnet up and it was an experience being next to it when he fired it up. Moved the air around it and with the noise was trouser movement territory, and when it accelerated away it was verging on thunderous. Will never forget it. Couldn't get a ride as he had someone with him. 😞 Shite Ron, MiniMinorMk3, Vantman and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garethj Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 I like these 306s, this is an HDI which is a bit better than the old d turbo. Unfortunately it’s a bit far away to pop in and check if the rear inner wing is made of metal or of rust. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/255994170929?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=bAimPH95R4C&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=y9xs1hiVQ9O&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY Supernaut, Remspoor, Erebus and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
