❚ 1977 MG Midget 1500 Roy Locock’s much-travelled 1500 (p30) makes the measly mileage that mine racks up each year look pathetic. We r neeaelldy to get out more in 2020.

JON BURGESS NEWS EDITOR

❚ 1995 SUBARU SVX More good news from the engine room – the misfire is finally cured! A faulty coil pack was to blame, aided and abetted by a pair of oxygen sensors well past their prime.

CHARLIE CALDERWOOD STAFF WRITER

❚ 1999 BMW 318Ti Not the most charismatic car I’ve ever owned, but started immediately after a week of driving other cars. I love how faultless this car is proving to be!

CHRIS HOPE FEATURES EDITOR

❚ 1980 TRIUMPH TR7 FHC Summer officially ended when the TR7 left the last Greetham Gathering of the year, last week. There’ll be no hibernating, though – it’ll be at Bicester’s Sunday Scramble next month.
