My car is rare as i beleive, 2.0 16v , most i've seen have been 1.8 turbo , any feed back on this would be interesting , hope to meet up with some of you soon ! Should be able to come to the shows so spk soon ! Neil

Default new here...

Hey guys, My name is Ben, i live in Cornwall and have just bought an s12.
Wow how much did that sound like an intro to an AA meeting?lol

dunno if you guys can help, i am in need of a pair of front wings for my 12. as she has been parked in a hedge for the last 18 or so months, she is a little worse for wear and needs a little TLC!

any feed back on this would be gratefully received. check you later.

Hi all, i'm gavin another new addition to the s12 way of life, actually i also just aquired a nice sunny b12 1.8zx too (for free), had vectra gsi for last 7 years, getting married in a few weeks, and decided to sell and buy something fun and rear wheel drive again, and have some money left over.... well that was the plan, had it 3 weeks.... after 3 days had head off due to exhaust manifold blowing and 1 bolt totally buggered, and found needed a rebuild. still now i know its all ok internally... but after just 200 miles, its in bits again... due to a blown turbo, and faulty crank oil seal... still keeps me poor, so my better half can spend it all.. sorry for long post.
Keep all the good info flowing guys, newbies like me would be lost without places like this.
Cheers Gav

Hi Gav,
Sounds like fairly common problems. You have the car running for a few days, then off the road for a week .
The joys of s12 motoring .
Regards,
Ian.
