Hi Guys,

I have had a set of new coolant hoses made for my super by Performance Silicone Hoses. If you need some hoses have a look at the web link below, hoses are available in seven colours as well as a classic black style hose.

I had the coolant hoses made from a pattern of my old hoses, which I have allowed Phil to keep, so if you have a 2.0 litre Sports / Super and want hoses just phone Phil on 0116 245 2322.

If you have a different engine or hose set up Phil can make the hoses to a pattern just have a chat with him about what your requirments are.

Below is a photo of my hoses on the kitchen table, I will post another photo when there are fitted to the car.

 

That's really great. Another essential item that can now be easily souced ensuring our pride and joy can be kept on the road ;)

What sort of price is a set of hoses and did you get the heater ones too?

Thanks Phil,

In will get a set in red. just have to see what shape I need to accommodate removal of the standard thermostat on the engine side and blocking off one side of the T-piece.

This should be rather simple. The hose from T-piece to radiator is the same as standard. The one from radiator to the block is different. Will measure and send to Phil. I am sure we will make exactly what I need.   
 
Sorry for low picture quality , but it should give you  good idea anyway.

Hi Phil

I would like a set in red my egine is the standard 1.8 L. Could I order them over the internet. This would be easier for me since I live in the US. Please look into this for me.

Thank you

Very smart looking phil i really like them.
What are the costs ??

An update on this supplier in case anyone else digs out this thread looking for coolant hoses. Their telephone number is now joint with another company who have nothing to do with the hoses. The guy concerned with the hoses is never there, the other people take messages for him. I've tried 3 times, never had a response. Same with email, also never got a response, so it feels like this supplier has given up or is about too.

Give Mary a call @ classic silicone hoses she is very helpful :)

Try these people.

May be an idea to do a Group buy?

Chris beat me to it.

 ;D

Fantastic, thank you :)

Well I am going to place an order for a set, anybody else want some? If so happy to see what they'll do if we order a group purchase.

I could be in on 2 or 3 sets?

I would be interested in a set

Ok, I'll call tomorrow to order mine and see what they'll do for 4 sets.

Any news on the Hoses?

Yes, spoke to Mary on Friday. She was checking on prices and emailing me a quote, as they don't actually manufacture them themselves. Should know on Monday the costs.

There are a number of options for colours, those that are interested can you post what colours you are looking for? I'm getting he standard black silicone, but you may want something else.

Price for one set, including all the clips (details on their web site) 157.42 GBP. I am ordering the regular black silicon.

Anyone else interested? Which colours? I can get a price based upon the number of sets being ordered, need to know today really as I want to order mine before I head off to Europe with work.

Blue, Black and Red for me if the price is right.

I would be interested in a red set if the price is right

I would be interested in a set of blue hoses if you can get a good price

Folks,

Mary kindly offered a 5% club discount, however as I'm travelling I won't be in a position to organise you all ordering. Suggest those interested mail Mary direct, otherwise I think list is a pretty good price for something you probably won't be able to find in the near future.

Thanks Che ;) I will get in touch with her. I suspect they will be at the Classic car show NEC this year too next month.

A good idea with Group buy!

I have ended up with two sets of these (long story) in black, so anyone still looking for a set PM me. Just the hoses though, no clips.
