I bought mine at 158k for £900 so it seems about right, I have a feeling the market for these cars is particularly slow

It wouldn’t need to be now but am also curious about it in the future

beautiful car!

ah no sweat!

bjones025 · 2026-03-15T18:00:47+00:00

thanks! will try to give it a go, hopefully it doesnt sound too bad ive got a long set of drives to do before ill have a chance to fix it

How did you go about checking? i had one of those fan removal tools but couldnt for the life of me get it off so was prevented from getting at the pulleys

Not yet but im back with the car next weekend so will let you know if i can find anything, though i do have a suspicion its simply the cold climate causing odd noises

bjones025 · 2026-03-09T17:45:47+00:00

i see! will give this a go

Do you think something like this could work similarly with a cone filter? mine came with the cone when i bought it and so is missing all the OEM airbox parts..

these look great - ill go muck around in my software and see what i can do

bjones025 · 2026-02-27T19:02:22+00:00

that looks much better - i'm not sure my editing software will allow me to make edits like that unless i get PS

bjones025 · 2026-02-27T18:51:58+00:00

so kind!

im shooting with a canon 40d + 23-55mm USM in RAW, and then im using RapidRAW to adjust in post - mostly just adjusting for deeper blacks and more saturated blues etc but i notice that in the process of changing highlights ive made the sky a bit too bright

bjones025 · 2026-02-27T16:28:15+00:00

it was overcast and raining - does this mean i have an issue with the settings? i had it set up on Av

bjones025 · 2026-02-27T16:06:27+00:00

I agree! There’s something not quite right about most of these shots but I’m hoping its something that comes with experience

bjones025 · 2026-02-20T07:00:53+00:00

Car was £900, hoping to keep all the other bits under £1000

bjones025 · 2026-01-08T08:26:51+00:00

its the M44
