How does the length of your new hoses compare with your old ones?

Johny. That’s a great help. I now understand why there’s a difference in RPM at a set speed between each variant. Thank you. 👍

Hello . Does the Mk2 Vitesse Overdrive and Non Overdrive cars have the same ratio differential unit fitted? In not, can anyone tell me what the ratios are for each variant? Pete

Gary. I agree, that is an absolutely beautiful herald but I prefer the Vitesse. Thank you for spending your time and effort in helping me with my search 👍

That makes perfect sense! Knowing my luck, my guess would be the tub has been set too far back👍

Pete H. I believe it’s Valencia blue but like Clive says it could look different due to lighting angle, camera setting or monitor. Clive. I think the gaps are far better on the one I’m viewing tomorrow. To be honest, the black one looks “too good” to me and seems to have lost some character if that makes sense ? Plus the fact that the gaps aren’t as good as I would expect puts me off slightly.

Clive and Gary. The black one may be worth a look in the future but I agree with Johny- the bonnet gaps do look large! Gary. I have contacted the owner of the Valencia blue one and will be doing a 6hr round trip tomorrow to view it. Pete. Yes, the white one looks good but I can only see one photo of it and am unable to contact the owner. I have paid my fees today but cannot see the owners contact details. I have left a message with the club explaining my difficulty so hopefully Lisa will be able to help me tomorrow. All. Thank you for your responses and help. Pete.

Hello. I apologise for posting in this section but couldn’t find an alternative. As the title says, I’m looking for a Vitesse mk2 convertible with overdrive. I have searched the internet and am looking for the best one currently available. I may be looking for the impossible but are there any unmolested originals out there? If so how much am I likely to pay? Alternatively, a well restored car or similar would also suit. Thank you in advance. Pete
