DAVID SIMISTER EDITOR

❚ 1977 RELIANT Scimitar GTE Had a baby seat delivered this week in anticipati­on of the new arrival to the Simister household. Resisting the temptation to try it out in the GTE.

❚ 1997 JAGUAR XJ6 3.2 Sport Using it for my next few shopping missions – the last thing I want is for lockdown to end only to find that it has four square tyres…

JON BURGESS NEWS EDITOR

❚ 1995 SUBARU SVX

Everyday car had to go in for some work and the garage had no courtesy cars, so I broke the SVX out of hiding to do some food shopping for some self-isolating friends in it.

CHRIS HOPE FEATURES EDITOR

❚ 1980 TRIUMPH TR7 FHC Feeling guilty that it’s still sitting in the garage awaiting its revival. It will happen – once the pestering to paint the fences has stopped!

RICHARD GUNN SENIOR CONTRIBUTO­R
