Re: Club Cat?

Thanks guys.

So it's only a Cat for a 2 and thus won't fit the 3.5?

Club Cat?

Hi

Is there a club Cat that can be swapped on to member's cars?

My MOT is coming up at the end of the month and for the last one the factory swapped a Cat on for the test as it failed without it.

I'll have the next one done locally but I'll need a Cat.

Re: A surreal moment

So far, in my nascent Atom owning experience, people that come up seem to either have absolutely no idea what it is or else they know EXACTLY what it is.

Haven't had the squaddie experience yet though.....

Re: First track day coming up

All great advice from Hedge. I'd just add that the best thing you can do on a track day is to leave your ego in the pits. There's always someone faster than you and track days aren't races so there's nothing to prove. The best track days are when you start slow and spend time learning the track, whi...

Re: Recording a route off road

I'd just use Strava on my phone seeing as I use it for mountain biking anyway.

Mind you, my phone lasts 4-5 days without charging and is waterproof\bash proof. Ideal for a Nomad!

Re: Isle of Man

I was considering the IoM as well. Count me in! I'm guessing it would need to be after the Manx GP?

Re: PSA Heated Clothing

Good tip, thanks @Namastebuzz - got caught out in the snow in my Atom the other day (don't ask) it was -3c outside and with two pairs of regular gloves on, my hands were bl**dy freezing after 2 mins. Instantly regretted nipping out to quickly 'charge up the battery'.... ;) No worries. Hope it stave...

Re: PSA Heated Clothing

The Blaze Wear stuff has a wee button you click multiple times for each heat setting and it turns red, yellow or green depending on the level. Socks and gloves have individual ones built in too. There is a separate Bluetooth controller available but I think it does the jacket only and you don't need...

PSA Heated Clothing

So, in anticipation of driving my 3.5 around the frozen North of Scotland - that's our summer time to you Southern Softies - I've invested in some heated clothing. Went to https://www.blazewear.com/ and they had reduced their 12v Moto range even more than normal. I bought jacket, trousers, gloves an...

Re: info on this atom WA10 CXE

Yeah spoke to him, offered a cheeky 40 but he said no.. Did he mention the history? £45k looks to be in the ballpark for the spec (high) and mileage (low) although it's probably been used on track a lot - hence the extra wheels. Every Atom is totally individual so prices are hard to compare but if ...

It is, with a good spec, but no mention of any service history.

Indeed, it is a bit light on detail but I'm sure a bit of digging would elucidate the matter.

Re: info on this atom WA10 CXE

. Ade, we need to team together here else we are going to be going after the same cars & bidding each other up! The factory sell cars on behalf of customers. You can call them and see what they might have coming in. They'll only sell cars that are absolutely perfect. You can also get upgrades d...

Re: info on this atom WA10 CXE

Yeah the guy who's selling me his 3.5 has a 4 now. He described it as better in every way and faster than the 3.5. Then he went on to describe it as like driving a "saloon car"! Make of that what you will. Maybe the 3.5 will become a classic. The last of the pure supercharged madness befor...
