Welcome!

Could you please share a pic of your engine bay straight on from the front?

Also: Would you be able to source/sell me an NB 1.6 valve cover?

Thanks!

I didn't mean for you to sell me one of yours, but if you could find one in salvage somewhere, i'd be happy to pay you for one.

Welcome to the forum.

Your car will be faster with smaller diameter wheels, if it matters to you.

We have another member from your country here. JaguarJay, I believe his name is. I brought some parts to him in Amsterdam.
