Re: Engine paint colour
Thanks for the advice, now all I need to find out is what paint is the same as Comma Green down here in OZ. Would that be the same as the BMC green. Mind you I also like the look of the engine colour in the photos supplied by 47P2

Re: P2 Suspension for the Kitcher
Thanks Mike,
Had a chat with Mike Couldry about this subject the other day,seems he has an answer and can supply a kit already made up using telescopic dampers from the P3 and a bracket that as you say fits into the existing mounting holes, always a bonus.
