  1. Tim I'm not sure but I think the4A has telescopics fitted, however it snapped the drivers side trailing arm 2/3rds way from the outer bush to the spring pan. That is to say it snapped across one of the thicker bits of the trailing arm. Dave
  2. Both our modern cars, Landrover and seat have front and rear DRL. What annoys me are the cars running on DRL when you know that model has automatic lights which have been turned off.
  3. Hi Richard In the attached photo are a couple of rally TR4s with lamp bars, the green one has Lucas FT spots and the white one has Lucas 20/20, which are 1970's. Unless you are bound by regulations, or you want to keep it 'in period' I would be tempted to look at LED spotlights Dave
  4. HERO usually post spectator information for the rallies in the days before the rally starts. These are often at the test venues Dave
  5. Hi Phil Thanks for marshalling, and as Tony says without marshalls we wouldn't be able to have our fun on these type of rallies. Glad to hear that you enjoyed it despite missing your evening meals. Dave
  6. There were another two TRs on the rally, another 4 and a 4a And very smart it looked in its new colour scheme, and they are tough cars considering what we were doing to them in the forests, no retirements. The 4A managed to complete the rally after getting a replacement trailing arm whilst in Scotland when the original split.
  7. Car enjoying a well earned rest after completing the rally. Much to our surprise we won our class on the Lite version. The rally was fantastic, really challenging for the crews and cars
  8. Looking a bit less pristine, now we're at the end of leg one in Edinburgh, Otterburn was rough!
  9. Ready and waiting for darkness before we start the prologue to this year's Rally of the Tests Dave
  10. I agree with both Stuart and Keith above about fabric MX5 seats, indeed I swopped my leather ones for fabric ones in my TR6. For those looking for a source of MX5 seats, you could try Autolink near Dumfries (https://www.autolinkmx5.com/) who carry a large amount of secondhand MX5 parts. I knew Andrew, the owner, over ten years ago when we both lived in Hampshire when I bought a MX5 from him. Dave
  11. If you get a Clearview stove there are no bolts to remove to sweep the chimney. I agree with those that have said you need a flue and a suitable cowl and get it swept annuallly, it's a condition on our house insurance. Dave
  12. Hi It's given as 1023mm in the parts catalogue. Dave
  13. Chris I fitted a set of TR5 reversing lights to my TR4 and used the offside one as a fog light and the nearside for the reversing light, both with LED bulbs Dave
