Sounds like an email to Jess Streeter might be the answer. Usually plenty on Japanese Yahoo try http://tinyurl.com/kof9qx item g65062970 page 11

Selling my 1991 Silver Beat, I am onto a new project. Under 60,000 miles, taxed and MOT, seats recovered with smart tailor made covers, new floor mats (black), ECU capacators replaced and now...
I think you are very unlikely to find Beat specific runners them at an autojumble simply because there are few Beats in UK. They do turn up on Japanese Yahoo but probably not an economic proposition...
I have some old seat fabric you could use, yours for the cost of postage. PM me.
Tom
Beardo got it in one> Its yours and you like it, much:) I like it too as it happens.
Tom
I looked at Elise seats but they are quite wide at the shoulder and I didn't think they would fit in.

The department of transport is likely to have a different view from insurers. Their reply above seems to indicate to me that any car in UK could use a T rated tyre as the national limit is 70mph....
Yes, nice pics and convivial bunch :-)
Tom
Good event, thanks to Emily for organising it and the weather! Good to put some faces to the names.
Tom
I understood that the load rating is the two (or three) numbers prior to the speed rating letter.
Tom
My copy of the Honda specs, I don't know if it is the official one, but it does quote H rating despite the speed rating being well in excess of that quoted for an unmodified car. Anyone know why that...
Given that the maximum speed limit in UK is 70mph then surely all tyres rated above 70mph must be okay for use here ;) Would an insurance company then have to prove that the vehicle was exceeding the...
I dont think the fact that it was successfully imported means the tyres are legal in UK. That is the responsibility of the driver, not customs officials - imho. The specs I have do list H rated tyres...
These people have the correct tyre sizes, a decent choice and reasonable prices http://www.camskill.co.uk/ I have used them and had no problems.
Tom
Result - of a sort!
Tom
Beardo, thanks for the offer, looking for a runner to replace my current engine which I will then re-fettle. Biguns247 may possibly have one for sale "if" he decides to break his Beat.
Tom
Barney, if you find two....... ;)
Tom
PS Thanks Steve
Still interested in the roll bar, price?
Tom
I would be interested if you find a source.
Tom
Tado, sounds as if you are nearly there?
Tom
I assume you are breaking it in which case I may be interested in the engine, price? I am going to the KKIP so could pick up then, dont think you are too far away. Could you pm me your phone number?...
Using a trailer now so I will be there.
Tom
Beardo, my towcar is this

so I should be okay, it is about 2000 kgs. I think I have now sourced an A frame so looking good as they say. Should have my new...
Beardo, thanks for your comprehensive response! I was guided to this in another forum http://www.ntta.co.uk/faq/default.htm which seems to say it is not legal but there again a Seicento is heavier...
I was trying to borrow an A frame to tow my Beat down but have been told that it is illegal and getting a trailer might be more of a challenge but I am still hoping to be there, with or without Beat!...
