Casing now successfully removed - thanks v much for your help. Hopefully fitting the replacement will be easier (a triumph of hope over experience, as they say).

I need to replace the battery on my 2011 156THP. After watching watched the relevant YouTube video on how to get the old battery out, I've removed the fuse holder from the top of the casing and disconnected the positive terminal but I can't get the main plastic casing covering the battery to...

Great. Thanks for the quick answer.

Hi, I'd appreciate any advice on what make/type of (red) power steering fluid to use in my 2011 1.6 THP. Commaoil.com specifies EXT Fluid but another site which actually sells it says that it's not compatible,

Nothing too exotic - I'd happily settle for the model with the 1.6 unit in 156bhp form. Ideally it would be in black, grey or blue and in GT spec.

Hi everyone. I have a TVR 1600M which is approaching its half century. I don't want to sell it, but I'd like a car I can use more often and that's suitable for the occasional longer trip. The RCZ really appeals for its style, economy and (relative to the TVR!) practicality, so I've joined the...
