DAVID SIMISTER EDITOR

❚ 1977 RELIANT Scimitar GTE Venturing into a nearby classic-friendly garage for its MoT and an oil change. Fingers crossed they don’t find anything too nasty this year…

JAMES SADLIER MANAGING EDITOR

❚ 1999 PEUGEOT 406 Coupé Took it to Woburn Safari Park for a day out. Amazingly all the exterior trim is still intact, although the monkeys did enjoy the paintwork!

MIKE LE CAPLAIN PRODUCTION EDITOR

❚ 1997 JAGUAR XJ6 3.2 Sport

Still slumbering under its cover following my return from holiday while I try to manufactur­e excuses as to why I need to take it out for a long drive.

JON BURGESS NEWS EDITOR

❚ 1966 VOLVO 121

Faults are being fixed, slowly. The broken sunroof is wedged closed for the moment, the dwell angle has been set and the brakes have been bled.

CHARLIE CALDERWOOD EVENTS EDITOR

❚ 2000 PEUGEOT 306 1.8 16v Searching for a three-spoke steering wheel as the four-spoke in my car is very chunky. Anyone with a good one spare, please get in touch!

CHRIS HOPE FEATURES EDITOR

❚ 1980 TRIUMPH TR7 FHC Gradually working through all of the little jobs on the TR7 ahead of its upcoming MoT – but it’s missing out on the latest spell of hot weather.

RICHARD GUNN SENIOR CONTRIBUTO­R

❚ 1996 SAAB 900 S CONVERTIBL­E About to undertake a long trip to Bournemout­h to see family. Being a convertibl­e, it should feel perfectly at home by the seaside.

NICK LARKIN EDITOR-AT-LARGE
