Otherwise I think some people would be a bit sceptical as to buying a new X-car if they risk not getting parts for it some years from now... |
SHY could not agree more about the rain and the need for the undertray, I will convey these thoughts closely with both Paul and Chazz as the cars completion and release draws ever closer.
As for the X5, most parts are still available, the only two you cannot get any longer are the chassis and the machined pulleys (they have to made in large batches and it would not be viable to make any more now that they have run out). However, the easy alternative for these is the rear diff pulley from the XX4 (used in both font and rear on the X5) along with the rear belt pulley also from the XX4 on the layshaft, these are what the UK team here ran for the entire last season that we ran the X5 and they worked very well indeed.
