  • SamcoSport Launch New Ford Focus RS Turbo Kits

    SamcoSport, the best-selling silicone hose manufacturer has released three exciting new kits for Ford’s impressive Focus RS Turbo.

    All of the kits are hand-made here in the UK from the highest grade of silicone and individually reinforced to cope with the rigours of the high-performance five-pot motor. Having proven their worth on everything from F1 downwards, the SamcoSport kits are more than up to the job on even the most highly tuned of RS powerplants

    The six piece turbo kit is available either with or without dump-valve take off and costs £179.68. The five piece coolant kit costs just £155.89 and the three piece induction kit represents superb value at only £108.52. This latter kit is worthy of note due to its superior levels of reinforcement to prevent it collapsing under extreme intake pressures.

    As with all Samco Sport kits, 15 colourways are available, including custom camouflage and ‘Blaze’ combinations, making it easy to match or contrast your engine bay.

    Superior aesthetics aside, factor in the additional protection for your engine – and you’d be a RS not to!

  • Alcar Present League Retro Star Rim. Star Quality!

    In case you hadn’t noticed, Old is suddenly the new ‘New’. Ever one to be ahead of the curve, the latest League wheel design mixes authentic Retro good looks with modern-day dynamics.

    Although thankfully, we haven’t regressed to the crazy fashions of the 70s and 80s, a lot of the wheel designs of that era have suddenly become very cool again. Looking like it’s stepped straight off the pages of a classic issue of ‘Custom Car’ or ‘Street Machine’, the Retro Star exudes the kind of period charm that usually requires several days of Ebay trawling and then a huge refurbishment bill to achieve.

    Available in the ever popular 4 x 100 PCD, and in 7 x 15” fitment, expect the Retro Star to be the wheel of choice on many VAG, Vauxhall, Honda and 4 Stud BMW projects. Why not try a set on the new Mini for the ultimate mix of old and new?

    Thanks to Alcar’s stringent quality control procedures and cutting edge manufacturing techniques, the wheel surpasses all modern type approval criteria, something that no genuine classic rim could ever hope to achieve. So, if you’re after yesterday’s looks with tomorrows technology, today.. it’s the perfect rim for you. Even the price is Retro at just £82 + VAT each.
