last few weeks as that’s where I came across the car.You don’t have any details
of who had it listed in March 2020 do you?Not sure how long the guy I bought it
from has owned it but he has spent some money on a few things.It wasn’t a
planned purchase but after seeing in the flesh I am very happy with the car
just need to sort out a few of its issues and get a MOT on it.Put it this way
it wont be getting sold again for some time/if ever as I regret letting my 2+2

When I tried to match the Oxford Blue of my saloon (to pigment the gelcoat for
my Quantumsleep caravan) I had a small pot of the original blue with a number
on it. I tried to match to available pigments, and even tried to get info from
Quantum Moulding, with no luck – nobody seemed to recognize the number! There
appear to be only 2 suppliers of pigment (Llewelyn Ryland and Scott Bader), so
your best chance may be to send each of them a small sample to see if they can
match it. The other factor is that the pigments all fade over time.Martin Scott

Re: [Quantum Owners] Driving QSC for 25 years . . .
Until the point when i.c. engines are banned in Amsterdam it seems possible that LPG might be the easiest solution to the problem faced by Hans. In considering electric propulsion has the possibility of using electric power to the rear wheels, with a range suited only to inner city use, been overlooked. With recharging from the mains at home and at the office/workshop and the use of drive systems already developed for motor scooters or motorbikes costs might be relatively low.

I have saved some money to spray and refurbish the coupe and get the 2+2 out of storage (recent engine rebuild) and fix the damaged sill/door this summer. But this plan goes down the drain Thanks to the Left “green” Amsterdam municipality I soon can’t drive to my workshop with my QSC’sThey ban any car/diesel less than Euro4 emissions beginning 2020, banning non electric commercial van’s & mopeds by 2025 and any combustion engine vehicle by 2030.Other cities want to follow this path to ban combustion vehicles. How to go to work and maintain the QSC’s – if I can’t drive to my workshop. 1 convert to Electric – very expensive & low range 2 Convert the QSC logbook to Euro6 with a 1.0 Ecoboost engineThe Dutch RDW = DVLA is very reluctant with information on how to change the logbook to Euro6.It seems I need to do an expensive individual emission and safety test by TNO (applied scientific research).Need a very recent low milage/new 1.0 Ecoboost donor car for the engine, gearbox, wire loom etc. modify driveshaft's, etc. etc. Probably need some re-engineering work. This costs much more than I saved so far 3 buy a tin car I hate rust After 25+ years my QSC hobby ends unexpected and far to early. There is a very small kit car market in The Netherlands. So selling my QSC’s will be difficult. In the current state, both need body work, they will not be worth very much.The car dismantling company’s (scrap heap) don't want them due to the fiber body I can sell the spare parts to ford lovers – there are less than 80 registered fiesta MK2 XR2 left in The Netherlands . . .

Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Young driver interested in kit cars
Tee Gee I live in Norwich which may not too far from your home. I can't offer any advice about the electrical problem but it seems likely that between us we might manage to get the door back in place.

I'm going to be selling my 2+2 very soon, it's a 1.4 and I've owned it for about 11 years. It's been a brilliant car and it's only because I've got a back/shoulder injury that I'm selling it, I've now got an automatic metal box to drive!. The problem I have is the lack of power steering and the right knee twist as you get out! I can't think of it failing anything unusual at MOT's , although I have had to weld up where the track stabilizer bar fits to the front subframe. There's two minor things at the moment which I haven't been physically able to do. The drivers door needs re-bolting back on (long story,but it's now got a new top hinge) and it's also got what I consider a minor electric fault ( i just need to find it). It starts o.k. but dies after a short period of acceleration. As mentioned on the forum I think it could either be the connection on the coil (push on) another bad electrical contact or at the worse the distributor electronic module (reasonably cheap).The stainless exhaust is 18 months old, and it's got 3 months MOT. I really need about £1100 for it and I have a hardtop which I'm selling separately for £150. Good luck on your search, you won't be disappointed with either a 2+2 or H4.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Ethanol in petrol
My recollection of work done to fit cars for using ethanol fuel in the S American market was to eliminate the use of 'Mazak(?)' which became porous, not quite what was wanted with a carburettor. It may be that the fuel was pure ethanol in this case. -Original Message- From: Dave English To: Quantum Owners Group Sent: Mon, 20 Aug 2018 19:10 Subject: [Quantum Owners] Re: Ethanol in petrol Thanks for the info.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: 2+2 Alloy wheels
Having an odd fifth road wheel. Not sure if Quantum spare wheels are all carried in a wheel well in the boot possibly some have the spare underneath the boot. Either way if you put wider wheels on the car the spare may not fit in its proper place. Some owners use a narrower tyre as a spare. This usually has a distinctive marking and use is restricted to emergencies -Original Message- From: 'Steve Kodź' via Quantum Owners Group To: quantumowners Sent: Thu, 12 Jul 2018 11:50 Subject: Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: 2+2 Alloy wheels Martin, Before giving away the XR2 Pepperpot you might want to check if it is worth anything to someone with an XR2. These cars are getting rare, so a good condition original alloy wheel might be worth something to the right person. Regards, Steve On 11/07/18 23:41, 'Martin Hodnett' via Quantum Owners Group wrote: Thank you everyone for your input, very helpful indeed. I like these wheels, I can't imagine the car wearing anything else! I measured the width of the rim as 6" when I balanced them so most likely they are a 6J. I am changing the front brake calipers, when they arrive that is, and will check the inside of the rims for any other markings and numbers. That will be a major cleaning job! Regarding new wheels, I had specified the make, model and year of the car and been told that the correct offset would be applied at the time of ordering. I wasn't sure then about the J part of it but with your help, that is much clearer. Whatever I do, I must make sure they have four holes and not five to mount the wheels on the hubs. This is a whole world I never knew existed! Regarding plastic rings to centre the wheels Hans, mine do not have them at all. The wheels are a nice snug fit when pressed to the hub and hold well as the bolts are put in place. After I balanced the wheels, the wobble at around 60mph had gone. A very useful tip nonetheless and one I will bear in mind if I do change the wheels completely, the companies I looked at all mentioned rings and I wondered what they were for. I would be interested to find out more Robmirach. Apart from the non-matching and missing centre covers, I do not have a good spare either! The boot contains an original XR2 pepperpot wheel with a tyre size that does not match the rest. There is also a honking great nail through the tread that I hadn't notice in the last 15 years. If anyone wants the wheel, you are welcome - nail included! Thanks again. Martin -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Quantum Owners Group" group.
