EDITOR

RELIANT Scimitar GTE Waiting for an opening at my nearby classic-friendly garage for some TLC. Places with good reputation­s get booked up quickly these days!

MANAGING EDITOR

VOLKSWAGEN Polo

The gear stick is still feeling loose and moving into ™fth is proving much more dišcult now. The linkages could be on their way out…

STAFF WRITER

RILEY Gamecock

Having driven a ‘29 Riley Monaco for a recent shoot, it’s put into perspectiv­e just how nicely adjusted the brakes are on the Gamecock.

PRODUCTION EDITOR

JAGUAR XJ6 3.2 Sport Really missing the big old bus while I arrange funds for the diŠ’ repair… not least as its icy-cold air-con would be bliss in this heatwave.

FEATURES EDITOR

 TRIUMPH TR7 FHC

The TR7 has been retired from regular morning runs to my son’s nursery. I suspect he’ll be wanting a trip in it again soon, though!

SENIOR CONTRIBUTO­R

› SAAB 900 S Convertibl­e Recent heatwave has underlined the bene™ts of a £750 convertibl­e. The bonus scuttle shake helps keep one awake in the hot weather, too.

SENIOR CONTRIBUTO­R

 AUDI 80 CD

My ex-audi Heritage 80 is certainly getting used, with its odometer clicking over 20,000 miles during the recent heatwave.
