THIS WEEK IN OUR FLEET...

DAVID SIMISTER EDITOR 1972 MGB GT

Proving a treat during the current hot spell. Just need to think of somewhere other than the pub to take it!

JAMES SADLIER MANAGING EDITOR 2000 FORD Puma

Puma now has a funny scraping sound from the steering column. It still steers but it could be a pricey repair.

MIKE LE CAPLAIN PRODUCTION EDITOR 1977 MG Midget 1500

Fate doesn’t want me to get out in the MG and enjoy the sunshine. Reason #56: weekend at the Le Mans Classic.

CHRIS HOPE FEATURES EDITOR 1980 TRIUMPH TR7 FHC

See above. The same Le Mans Classic mentioned by Mike is the same reason the TR7 remains garage-bound.

JON BURGESS NEWS EDITOR 1988 HYUNDAI Stellar

When does a car smell like a veg stir fry? When you’ve squirted the bores full of XCP freeing a spark plug.

CHARLIE CALDERWOOD STAFF WRITER 1990 PEUGEOT 205 GT

Reapplied GT sticker set and already the number of people talking to me about the car has increased.

NICK LARKIN EDITOR AT LARGE 2003 MG ZR

Car behaving itself and definitely proving fun to drive after some major expenditure on it.

RICHARD GUNN SENIOR CONTRIBUTOR 1995 VOLVO 960

Watched recent England vs Sweden tussle on an iPad in the Volvo, so I could feel empathy with both teams.
