Go to first new post road test exempt? by nona
Hello, The vendor of this van on Ebay claims it is road test exempt. 370001550152 Sounds unlikely somehow. Can it be? Not thinking about buying - just curious how such an exemption might be obtained.

Mystery Car by Halmyre[_2_]
Does anyone know what this is? http://www.jpgimage.co.uk/view.php?image=1037 I think it's a Lancia, or maybe a Maserati. Sorry, don't have a higher resolution picture, or I would be able to decipher the badges/info board! I've had a suggestion that it's a de Tomaso Longchamp, but I'm not convinced. -- Halmyre

My sad news day by Jim Warren
I went to my local garage this morning - the one that has looked after MOTs and welding on all my cars for the last 33 years - and it has changed hands. The mechanic who has looked after my daily driver Triumph since I bought it 24 years ago, (and done most of the repairs for the last two after my joints got a bit too creaky) has retired. Instead of someone taught in the traditional ways,...

Channel tunnel with car trailer by rdm@homeoraway.net
Hi Does anyone have information about using the tunnel with car + classic car on trailer? It looks to me from their web site that it can be done without charge for the trailer. Also would one go with the cars or coaches / vans?

Princess (wedge) available? by Michael Kilpatrick
I'm considering, if it's possible to find one, getting a Austin (or Leyland, I think to be more accurate) Princess for my wife. A 2000HL or 2000HLS Princess 2, which I think means circa 1978-1981. I've seen that there are one or two still about in good shape but they must be pretty rare now. Anybody seen one? I had one (HCA 100T) when I was a student in 1992, and loved it. Mind you, that was...

Music in a Beetle by NickNoxx
My wife has just bought a 1972 Beetle in 'as new' condition. One owner from new and garaged it's whole life this 35 year old car has done just 38k miles. She'd like to get some music but as the interior is so perfect doesn't want to drill any holes so we're looking for some sort of mp3 player/dock/amp/speaker combo that could be sited under the front seat (say) (ideally with a remote...

For Sale: Austin Healey BJ7 MKIIa 3000 1963 BRG by waterdell@hotmail.com
Dear Classic enthusiasts, Just to alert anyone out there who might be interested to know that this Healey is back on the market. Husband has now finally decided to let her go to a new home, but serious buyers only please. We will consider all realistic offers as the car was restored 10 years ago and hasn't had major works undertaken since then, so would suit anyone wanting a 'project'. We can...

BNP man to be shunned in London assembly by St Georges Day April 23rd
The British National Party's sole member of the London Assembly will become a "pariah" as the major parties agree to shun him. As he launched into a victory speech at City Hall early yesterday, other politicians left the stage in protest. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/boris_johnson/1924867/BNP-man-to-be-shunned-in-assembly.html One, two, three Ooooooooooooh!

Clutch cover ID: AP HE 1074 by Ian
Folks, I bought a NOS Herald clutch on eBay. Unfortunately, it has come with the wrong cover plate in the box. No problem, as the seller has refunded me, but I was wondering if anyone could identify it. It seems to be an AP HE 1074. Looks like 7" diameter, and the friction surface is a long way ( 1/2") below the mounting flanges, so it looks as if it's for something with the clutch well...

Silicone brake fluid by Ian
Dear All, I've just replaced almost the entire braking system on my Herald: calipers, wheel and master cylinders, hoses and some pipework. Now would therefore be a good time to change to silicone brake fluid, if I'm going to do it. What do you all think? Worthwhile for a car which will be doing light summer duty only?

Frogeye clutch? by whammy
Can anyone give me a rough estimate of the price of replacing the clutch in a frogeye (ie having a commercial garage do the work)? The car has the 948cc engine which I believe has to come out of the car to change the clutch? Are there are sprite specialists in Norfolk (UK)? Thanks in advance... Jerry
