THIS WEEK IN OUR FLEET…

-

DAVID SIMISTER EDITOR ❚ 1990 MAZDA Eunos Roadster Weighing options for best value replacemen­t of tired roof. Holding out for a green one – but my V-spec originally had a tan soft-top…

JAMES SADLIER MANAGING EDITOR ❚ 1999 PEUGEOT 406 Coupé Aside from guzzling petrol, the 406 is driving like a dream and great fun to cruise in. It still has the odd misfire when cold – so I keep it warm!

MIKE LE CAPLAIN PRODUCTION EDITOR ❚ 1997 JAGUAR XJ6 3.2 Sport I was expecting great things when I took it out on its maiden 2022 voyage. Sadly it turned out that the big cat had a bit of a surprise up its sleeve…

CHARLIE CALDERWOOD EVENTS EDITOR ❚ 2000 PEUGEOT 306 1.8 16v Auto wipers are driving me mad – what bright spark thought that replacing intermitte­nt wiping with this ridiculous system was a good idea?

CHRIS HOPE FEATURES EDITOR ❚ 1980 TRIUMPH TR7 FHC Weather is improving. Plan is to give the TR7 a clean this weekend and then do some digging into why the temperatur­e gauge is under-reading.

RICHARD GUNN SENIOR CONTRIBUTO­R ❚ 1996 SAAB 900 S Convertibl­e Saab has been dropped off at the excellent Leelac Saab in Stevenage to have all of its little niggles and big issues – ie. the hood – sorted.

KEITH ADAMS SENIOR CONTRIBUTO­R ❚ WAIT AND SEE! A bit of an impulse purchase this week saw me back in the Citroën fold. Now, to get it from Scotland... More to follow soon!

NICK LARKIN EDITOR-AT-LARGE ❚ 2003 ROVER 75 Rover disgraced itself a mile from home after a bolt on the alternator either fell out or snapped off. Hello RAC truck, unfortunat­ely!

❚ ALSO ON THE FLEET David Brown 1999 Rover 200 BRM. Steve Berry 1970 Reliant Scimitar. Richard Kilpatrick 1992 Jaguar XJS. John Lakey 1984 Opel Monza. Nick Larkin 1960 Austin A55. Alex Riley 1981 Triumph TR7 Conv. James Taylor 1950 Rover P4. Fuzz Townshend Austin 7 Special.
