    Originally joined the Register in 1984 when I owned a 1973 TR6 (OPC 310L) and another 73 TR6 (NAP 966M), then a basket case 68 TR4A (NHA 717F) and then another 68 TR4A (SUV 407F). Have recently found OPC 310L (TR6) and SUV 407F (TR4A), anyone know the whereabouts of my other TR6 (NAP 966M) and TR4A (NHA 717F)?

      Hi Remo,

      Sorry, but I can't help you - I'm not sure the club has gone firm yet,  maybe an email to Sue at the office might shed some light?

      Regards

      Andrew

    Bugger, 7 days until we leave for the Dordogne and Angouleme and I've put my back out!

    Angouleme

    Hi Kev, Yes, will post on the forum about our trip to Angouleme. Ahhh, the South of France in June 2012 via the Loire and Dordogne was a fantastic trip, and then back a week and off to Classic Le Mans in VUX. I've attached out outline itinerary below and also my spares list; of course I didn't need any of it! If you intend to visit the Dordogne, then I would highly recommend staying at the Vineyard in Minzac which is a run by friends of Kiwifrog (Alan Wynn) - the website is in the itinerary and a YouTube video is on a Facebook photo page.

  5. Off to the Monaco Historic in May 2014 Howard - Link and then Circuit des Remparts, Angouleme in Sep with Mr & Mrs Drunken Folly - Link That's if Duncan's TR5 will start..................and then keep going! Cheers Andrew

      Steve - he's a Stag man, so took pity on me being a poor TR owner.......

       

       

  7. Put around 25 miles each on TuRK and VUX this morning just to keep the wheels turning - nice sunny day but flipping freezing with aeroscreens fitted to TuRK - thank god for VUX's screen! At last, my knee held up in TuRK – happy days!

      'No pain, no gain' injured this knee in 1994, then again in 2005 and consequentially back in October..........not recommended.

      Stan, once I had pulled my back I moved the enigine around on my trolley jack - should have done that in the first place.

  11. Just had a great drive out in TuRK and had almost forgotten how rewarding it is driving a sidescreen in the sunshine! :)

      Thanks folks, I've now got three different types eye drops which I'm taking two drops about eight times a day, so hopefully all will be well by the weekend - either that or I’ll have drowned!
