EDITOR

1990 MAZDA Eunos Roadster Getting a few things cleaned up ahead of its appearance at the NEC. Looking forward to seeing it under the spotlights…

MANAGING EDITOR

1999 PEUGEOT 406 Coupé V6 Miles being kept to a minimum at the moment due to the cost of petrol. Still looking around for cheaper classic options, too.

PRODUCTION EDITOR

1997 JAGUAR XJ6 3.2 Sport Battery conditione­rs now actually fitted to both of my ‘toys’ so here’s hoping that the days of suffering flat batteries are finally over.

EVENTS EDITOR

2000 PEUGEOT 306 1.8 16v Mooted expansion of ULEZ might see the back of the 306. Not nearly as useful as a long-distance cruiser to me if it can’t go into London.

FEATURES EDITOR

1980 TRIUMPH TR7 FHC

My fault-finding mission to pin down why the temp gauge is under-reading will begin by checking for air locks. Hopefully it’s nothing more sinister…

SENIOR CONTRIBUTO­R

1982 AUSTIN Allegro 1.3 HL Spent part of the weekend trying to sort out the Allegro’s starting issues. It still won’t go but the list of potential problem areas is shrinking at least.

SENIOR CONTRIBUTO­R

1993 CITROËN XM V6

I appear to have committed to buy a left-hand drive Citroën XM V6. It’s always good policy to follow my own buying advice!
