Update on the rectifier. I e-mailed them on Wednesday to find out the score, they e-mailed back that it was in for testing. Have,nt heard anything yet. They,ll probably just send a new one. ;)

great news - good result. Sounds like they have started to improve their after sales service.

Very good news, I fitted the new rectifier today and she started second kick. I think I will buy one of the Mugen C.D.I from the German, if only to keep as a spare. I don,t think I will ever sell the A.R. but the bits are getting harder to find. If in 5 years time my C.D.I does die I can whack the new one on. A.R,s do really rock you know. :BB

I feel the same about the Mk1. Spent so much and parts getting rarer so buy up when and where.

Just lacking spare reg/rec and ECU as passing mine on to someone who needs it more at the moment.

Knack, if I may call you that, that was a very nice thing to do. Wish we had you in the A.R. team, "The Premiership" but at least your,e in Div 1, and not in Div 2, or Div 2.2. ;) I have put a best offer on the German C.D.I. but I get the feeling he won,t post to U.K. A message came up NACHT Granbratane or something like that. What a bummer.

Hi Mark, I have made an offer but he has,nt got back to me yet. He does,nt say what his postage is on his German site. He has,nt listed them on our site.

Just read Scrub,s post. I have offered more than him so I should get one, postage is 35 euros which is a bit over the top, but all in all it gives me my spare E.C.U.
