THIS WEEK IN OUR FLEET…

DAVID SIMISTER EDITOR

❚ 1977 RELIANT Scimitar GTE Spent the weekend trapped in the garage by a skip on the other side of the door – there’s plenty of DIY going on at the Simister household.

JAMES SADLIER MANAGING EDITOR

❚ 1999 PEUGEOT 406 Coupé V6 Work on replacing its dodgy door hinge and fitting it with a new set of plugs is keeping me busy. Don’t miss next week’s CCW for an update…

MIKE LE CAPLAIN PRODUCTION EDITOR

❚ 2001 MGF 1.8i

Fine weather meant that it was my daily runaround for a good ten days or so. Met Office is rather gloomier about the coming weeks, though…

CHARLIE CALDERWOOD EVENTS EDITOR

❚ 2000 PEUGEOT 306 1.8 16v Front brakes refreshed and they feel a hell of a lot better. No need to upgrade in the end, stock set-up was decent enough, just not quite so much when old and tired.

CHRIS HOPE FEATURES EDITOR

❚ 1980 TRIUMPH TR7 FHC Looking for a detailer to clean and return some lustre to its flagging paint. Can anyone recommend someone in the Cambridges­hire/ Lincolnshi­re area?

RICHARD GUNN SENIOR CONTRIBUTO­R

❚ 1993 FIAT Panda 1.1 Selecta Have fitted a K&N air filter to the Panda. I’m now looking forward to exploiting the dizzying extra 1.3bhp that this should release.

KEITH ADAMS SENIOR CONTRIBUTO­R

❚ 1988 RENAULT Alpine GTA Turbo Timely reminder to myself – time to look for a new passenger door mirror for my Renault GTA. Does anyone have one for sale?

NICK LARKIN EDITOR-AT-LARGE

❚ 1989 AUSTIN Maestro Managed to split its bottom hose, thankfully only a mile from home. Managed to get a replacemen­t quite easily, too. Oh, the relief.
