- Dear Dean, Very glad to hear that you had a great weekend. Here's the summary of mine... Set off for Richmond in North Yorkshire around 10.00 a.m. on Friday. I was a little nervous about the ticking

- Sounds like an interesting weekend - I'm glad you finally managed to track down those elusive bits you were after, especially the steering wheel. The Spitfire Graveyard sounds like a wierd place - a

- I'm very pleased with my various acquisitions - all I have on the shopping list now are the items I'd like to get "One Day". Most of these are things that don't really need doing, but would be nice t

- Sorry to hear about Carly. Sounds like she's got my car, Christine's, old radiator! In fact, I had an identical thing happen to me a month or so after I bought Christine. I decided to take the oppor

- I know this won't make things any better for your instance, Michael, and I'm a bit embarrased to admit to this happening. But about 1 year ago, I had an 'overheating incident' in my car. Someone had

- Good for you for telling the story! There seems to be nothing wrong with my engine that a cylinder head skim and a new head gasket won't fix, although we won't know for sure until we reassemble it an
