DAVID SIMISTER EDITOR

1990 MAZDA Eunos Roadster Temporary roof repair holding up surprising­ly well, even with H521 increasing­ly venturing out topless in the warmer weather.

JAMES SADLIER MANAGING EDITOR

1999 PEUGEOT 406 Coupé 3.0 V6 I’m hoping it is still fixable given the many issues. I may soon sell it in the current condition to make space on my driveway for another classic.

MIKE LE CAPLAIN PRODUCTION EDITOR

1997 JAGUAR XJ6 3.2 Sport Brave pills taken and big cat booked into the garage to see what the source of the recently developed and rather unpleasant noise is.

RICHARD BARNETT MARKETS EDITOR

1967 MGB GT

To say it’s running appallingl­y would be an understate­ment. Scheduled to go to a local specialist shortly for some full-on refreshing. If not, it’s back on the transfer list.

CHRIS HOPE FEATURES EDITOR

1980 TRIUMPH TR7 FHC Enjoying regular commutes to CCW Towers at the moment. Looking at opportunit­ies for longer drives to classic car shows, too.

RICHARD GUNN SENIOR CONTRIBUTO­R

1996 SAAB 900 S Convertibl­e After four weeks away, the Saab now has an MOT again. It was a costly undertakin­g – more or less the equivalent of heating a typical home for a week these days.

KEITH ADAMS SENIOR CONTRIBUTO­R

1971 AUSTIN 1300 Deluxe

I’ve been agonising over the 1300. My head says I need to sell it to make room for my other projects, but my heart screams ‘Noooo!’.

NICK LARKIN EDITOR-AT-LARGE

1953 MORRIS Oxford MO

Had a nice sunny afternoon laying the various bits that came with the MO on the lawn. Think one or two may have strayed from another car.
