Hi guys im the new chuffed owner of FRP 480. Im well chuffed its not the cleanest example but has loads of history which is all good. I have already overhauld the front brakes with new discs and pads, new Hego sensor, coil pack and leads. Managed to get an original set of alloys which have been stripped and painted in white. Im loving this little motor and love driving it.

Also if anyone can help, I paid for my membership 3 weeks ago now and im still not aloud on the hole forum yet. I need more information. lol

Thanks Wils

The thread is here

there are at least two FRP's heading over from Essex I think :?
You might be able to convoy!
All the stand places have gone now, but you can always park in the general car park and introduce your self.
I have been to two previous ones and they have both been good days out.
OK very local for me (about 6 miles :wink: ) but well worth travelling further.

Glad to see that FRUP's local friend has found a good home. No doubt your aware that 480 is the FRP featured in "Puma the Inside Story". It was regularily used when it lived down here and was very well looked after by Steve who then owned it and was regularily serviced by the guy who used to look after FRUP and 192 as well. If you speak welsh to the car you'll find it'll think its back home on A4069 and might even go a little bit quicker especially on the windy twisty bits :D :D

Come on someone, not reflecting well on the site.

Surely theres someone on here that can help out?

Its worth the wait Wils :)

However 4 weeks is a bit of a [profanity replaced] take. :oops:

I've just been given permissions, so hopefully this should all be sorted now? You are the first one I have done so I can't guarantee I have done it correct!!

Sorry for the delay, I thought this had been done for you :?
