ANFRUSSELL Posted June 29, 2021 Report Share Posted June 29, 2021 A brilliant long weekend on the Isle of Wight - 330 mile round trip taking in great roads and visiting some fantastic places. The TR4A was the perfect car for the islands narrow lanes with the added advanatge of not being able to fit in any children or for there to be too much shopping done - win win in my book.

It’s a great place for eagle and buzzard spotting. Some of the roads aren’t great and we have caught the bottom in our modern car before. Let us know how you got on in the TR.

james christie Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 (edited) We ‘did’ Mull 2 years ago albeit in a ‘modern’ slk200. Wonderful place, lots to see and do. Birds, boats, seals,otters etc Reccomend Druimnacoish B&B.

Nigel A Posted July 7, 2021 Report Share Posted July 7, 2021 Lots of single track roads like a roller coaster on Mull so fun driving but have to be careful of cars coming the other way especially on brows and blind bends. No decent petrol so take octane booster!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jonathan Smith Posted July 11, 2021 Report Share Posted July 11, 2021 (edited) Back home from another great Aysgarth weekend. Big thank you to Ian Landen for a well organised, covid compliant event. Not the usual format but meeting up with old and new friends more than made up for the covid restrictions. Already looking forward to next year Edited July 11, 2021 by Jonathan Smith Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DavidBee Posted July 16, 2021 Report Share Posted July 16, 2021 In between — for me anyway— massive DIY push (concreting cracked patio flagstones and refurbishing front steps) I visited two local stores and took a detour home via a 120km road. I was feeling twitchy, not my 3. Well, understandable, after several mishaps (will report in KST post later). I tested overdrive, acceleration, brakes, steering. All rock solid. TR very responsive! Overheating a bit, not sure why. Another similar escape today to get the wonderful UK-British BRADITE primer cum topcoat paint from Hickeys in town. I'll think of something for another detour.

Misfit Posted July 16, 2021 Report Share Posted July 16, 2021 Isn’t It nice to have your daughter interested in TR’s and prepared to go for a drive with her father or “as she calls it grumps in an affectionate way.” Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bfg Posted July 18, 2021 Report Share Posted July 18, 2021 Brenda looks brilliant, as usual, Mike. A day out sounds very pleasant but I'll have to settle for fibreglassing the lid of my trailer in this heat ! Something makes me think, you've got ' life ' better sorted than me.
