    Old Map Book From My Grandad

    He gave me this in 1985, along with his AlfaSud 1.3. In 1985, the best quote I could get was in excess of £4000 from the AA (I think). So my Grandad pulled a few strings with his insurance company and paid the first year's insurance, but sadly the 'sud proved far too expensive for a 20 year old...

    Makeshift Ambo!

    Went on an overnight trip to Lancashire to help parents in law empty their static. Got home fully loaded on Friday, but realised we needed some juice to get home from Warrington. So we went to BP in Birchwood. The forecourt was painted with very smooth paint and it had been raining. As I took...

    MG Pilot Gripes

    In the main, I'm loving Pilot. Came from a 2009 ICE car that had none of that gear. But I must say, the car has made some odd decisions when using ACC. Mostly that when driving along, the car will brake suddenly and severely without any obvious hazard being visible. Has anyone else suffered...

    Future MG Models

    I was perusing the MG website and came across a picture of a prototype. Sadly I can't remember the name. When I went back on the website, I couldn't find it for love nor money. Moving away from that, MG has a plan to turn around their line-up very quickly over the next few years. Does anyone...
