THIS WEEK IN OUR FLEET...

DAVID SIMISTER EDITOR

❚ 1990 MAZDA Eunos Roadster Great at top-down fun. Not so great at delivering real ale-related presents to people who live on bumpy roads. Still, at least it all arrived intact…

JAMES SADLIER MANAGING EDITOR

❚ 1999 PEUGEOT 406 Coupé V6 Busy working up a list of little jobs to do on the 406 once it’s through the MoT. All of which seem to involve making it comfier on longer journeys.

MIKE LE CAPLAIN PRODUCTION EDITOR

❚ 1997 JAGUAR XJ6 3.2 Sport There’s not much of the classic season left, so busy planning a few ‘no particular place to go’ weekend runs before the weather turns nasty.

JON BURGESS NEWS EDITOR

❚ 1961 VOLVO 121

Having listened to those in the know I’m almost certain that the Amazon’s stalling and surging fits are ignition related. Anyone got electronic set I can borrow and try?

CHARLIE CALDERWOOD STAFF WRITER

❚ 1999 PEUGEOT 306 1.8 16v

I’m not using much fuel lately, which is good, but it does mean I’ve only just managed to empty out the 306’s tank for its planned fuel pipe repair.

CHRIS HOPE FEATURES EDITOR

❚ 1980 TRIUMPH TR7 FHC

Still nothing to report aside from short runs out to the shops. There’s still a battery drain to sort and a looming MoT to book.

RICHARD GUNN SENIOR CONTRIBUTOR

❚ 1996 SAAB 900 S Convertible Currently away from home having its failing alternator sorted out. The neighbours are delighted – it means less car slaloming outside my house.

NICK LARKIN EDITOR-AT-LARGE

❚ 2003 ROVER 75

Disgraced itself somewhat on the way back from Gaydon by saying goodbye to its water pump. Rigid bar tow by AA needed!
