F69 Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Watched it tonight on BBC1 at 4.30pm. The 2 experts, Charlie Ross and Charles Hanson were driving a maroon coloured TR6 which not only looked good but sounded lovely. The show finishes on Friday ( its on every evening at 4.30pm ) by which time with their driving it'll probably need a new clutch and gearbox. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DIYBOSSCAT Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 And it smokes a bit! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dave JRH Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 (edited) Good morning chaps, Yes the TR belongs to me and the clutch master cylinder failed last night halfway during the programme, replacement fitted and back on the road again. Yes it was smoking a bit, but nothing a good run wouldn't cure i feel Antiques Road Trip is back on BBC1 @ 4.30 tonight and the rest of the week, apparently there were no more problems Dave Edited February 12, 2013 by Dave JRH Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paul7 Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Where do they get the cars from? I wouldn't fancy them driving mine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Hi Paul, there have been a few requests for cars over the last couple of years on this forum and CT. The shows producers often scour the club mags and contact area leaders direct. That 6 looks a nice car- and most 6's smoke - usually from the PI if driven badly.

F69 Posted February 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 (edited) Hey Dave, I still thinks its a nice motor, even with the smoke and agree with Roger. I think you're a brave man Paul to let them have your pride and joy for a week or so, especially watching how they " mullah" some of the classics they drive.

paul7 Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Its Daves car not mine (Paul) I wouldnt let them have mine ! Ive seen the program before and they dont seem to take great care. I assume they pay for the use? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
johnny250 Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 Car looked really good Dave, I was hoping it wasn't the fork pin when clutch failed! Seemed to have lost it's tax disc by the end of the drive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dave JRH Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 Hi Johnny, Thanks for the compliment and i found the tax disc in the glove box. Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Denis Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 (edited) Recently watched the Wheeler Dealer lads do up a WW2 Willys Jeep they imported...they took it to a Re-enactment dressed as Gi's which was fun...then Mike Brewer made a classic gaff...when a Hurricane flew past...and he says..."Look they've even got a real Spitfire!"
