      Hi Ian,

      OK - I'll reply to the other sender (eclem) and see what getting it from France involves.

      As you said yours is in vgc its of interest even without the bracket providing the thread posts are still intact? So if you do come across it please let me know

      cheers

  8. INVITATION FROM THE ESSEX TR GROUP An opportunity for 4 wheeled Triumph owners with their cars to join a TRIUMPH event at Brands Hatch track. Date 3rdJune 2015 I have a group booking for a NOVICE TASTER SESSION at Brands Hatch track Kent, on the above date. This is NOT a track day….its simply an opportunity to take your TRIUMPH around the track behind a pace car and do a dozen or so laps – just for a fun experience ( and to be able to say you’ve taken the old girl around Brands!). You will do 3 laps behind the pace car to learn the turns then the pace car will pull in and you’l

Look out for the photo's in TRaction Bob
