❚ 1996 MAZDA MX-5 The only problem with holidaying in Greece is that Easyjet won’t let me check my now sparkling MX-5 in as luggage. Missing it already!

CHRIS HOPE FEATURES EDITOR

1980 TRIUMPH TR7 FHC The electric aerial I ordered has arrived. Fitting it should be straightfo­rward and hopefully restore FM radio to my ‘Seventies wedge.

❚ 1990 AUSTIN Maestro Back from an adventure in Scotland (on loan to Practical Classics) without incident. It’s picked up a healthy tribe of Austin-Rover devotees as a result.
