    It's been a long time but it had to happen..  Katie seen in this particular topic. !

    First trip out in Katie  for a very long time (seemingly with many of those hours / days with my being under the car or else inverted in the foot-wells).  After a final check, the intent was simply to take her around the block.. but she was driving so quietly and smoothly that I found myself over at Suffolk Water Park.  That was just a round trip of 20 miles ..but it's streets ahead of where we were a month ago.

    Pleased to see you out and about, good for you Pete hopefully first of many more trips out.:)

  23. Is an MOT required for motoring in France?

    Posted · Edited by Misfit

    Regarding the insurance I am aware of a significant accident where a non MoTed 1972 TR6 was involved. There was no issue with the claim and our TRRI through KGM settled it promptly. 

    Clearly  the vehicle needs to be roadworthy. An MoT is  not necessarily proof of that, having had a MoT at 9.15 and handbreak failure at 9.30, the hand break cable snapped the vehicle rolled into another. Unfortunately it was observed by a police officer. I was fined for having a unroadworthy vehicle. The recent MoT was not an acceptable defence. It only indicated it was roadworthy at that moment in time. 

    I cannot comment on whether it’s compulsory to have a British MoT in France, but as Hamish said it’s cheap if it gives you peace of mind.

    To the Operations Manager

    In terms of Autojumble pitches used for the whole weekend, does that constitute 3 days at £10 day ( Friday isn't a full day anyhow) and if not, what is the price of a weekend autojumble pitch? Also you are quoting pitches of 3m x 3m in size ( which was done last year erroneously for Malvern and then corrected to 6mx3m) - many autojumble stalls won't fit on 3x3m pitches - is this an oversight carried over from last year by mistake or do you actually mean the pitches will only be 3m x 3m - please clarify

    Thanks Rich

    That sounds like you will need two side by side pitches. That’s double the cost, but you won’t have a problem, you are Rich. 
     

    Rich get it, sorry Richard cant sleep, being silly.

    Chatham Dockyard is a great place to visit. It probably needs 2 r 3 three days to get the best out of it - it is BIG  

    A good number of TR's turned up for 'Drive it Day'.  Can't understand why but my car didn't get 'Car of the Show'.

    The weather stayed dry but that cold wind gained strength late afternoon.

    AND they have a steam engine (Ajax). Not running on this occasion but it looked as though it could.

    Well done to the TRR organisers and the Dockyard staff.

    Looks like the sun shone for the members, another good turnout must be close on 70 cars including TS2 great.
