• If it works the Focus is worth 2.5 to 3k over here. CT is cheap. Can’t remember but I think it’s less than 30€

    The word for stainless hardware you’re looking for is quincaillerie. You can buy by the unit at Bricomarché or similar, but I get stuff from a place called Destock MTX where they sell it by weight. Much cheaper!

  • Don't you think I have enough car projects in this country ;) Never mind bikes and a house. The interest arose if it met the crit air for Paris.

    Asked about the CT as the S is out of MOT and was tempted to stick it through a CT as see if there are any major issues that need looking at. Not sure if the S is worth more in the UK ouside the ULEZ, all the work done and no real history. So thinking selling the engine here and working out how to scrap the vehicle. That would be the most efficient way of dealing with the ca.

    Thought that quincaillerie was just hardware, is there a place for fastenings specialist?
    The DMX place is quite far from me ;) Not sure of the viabilty for just 10 bolts.

  • Not found a specific fastenings supplier. Not been looking, mind you.

    Actually the CT is 72€ so a bit pricey. If the Jag is on UK plates then I'd send it back to the UK to sell. It'll cost too much to register in France, especially if you can't prove it came over before the end of 2020 and have to pay Duty + VAT as well. You could always sell it to another Brit and make it their problem I suppose.
