Hi,

Quote:
The very last of the series 2 production run had the same config as the series 3, I doubt any still exisit in this country tho.


I know of one here. This car also has a few of the series 3 features, such as mounting points for installing front reinforcement bars between the firewall and inner wing (those black bars that can be removed to help replacing plugs on 16Vs) ; also the shield around the instrument cluster is that of the series 3.

regards,

Thanks guys. I wonder how they got the ser 3 setup to fit the ser 2, i guess they changed the mounting point as im sure you couldnt just swap it over.

I know the ser 3 has only leading arms and the ser 2 has leading and trailing arms.
Are the leading arms from ser 2 and 3 the same.
For those that dont know, leading arms go from the front of car to the rear axle to the axle and the trailing arms go from the axle to the rear of the car.
On a ser 2 there are 2 infront and 2 behind, on a ser 3 all 4 are infront.
Are 2 of them interchangeable?
Thanks in advance.
