    Gents. 2 weeks ago we held a dealer, customer & journalist drive week (well, four days, the fifth was for us to take back all the trailers and concrete weights etc) which gave everyone their first ever look and drive of our new electric truck range. A very big week indeed, with dinners each...

    Styria, Can I please make a respectful comment? After our discussion two days ago on the phone, I can see that you are exceptionally busy. Please stop replying to things from many many years ago, (some were over 10:years ago I seem to remember) and concentrate on recent posts. There is nothing...

    Here is a very nice vintage set I saw yesterday while walking through Port Macquarie. Very original inside as well. I’ll walk past there again today and if anyone about ask to have a look inside the matching Viscount. Also while eating at the Irish pub Finnians, where we sit outside, I also...

    All the clutches and bands actually look quite ok. How is she shifting now, as smooth as a gravy sandwich? 🤣

    Car of the week

    I think Mercedes Benz were the first to come up with a full safety cell, and un jamable doors when the W116 was released. In 1978, the first W116 I ever saw, I was stunned simply by the door locks. All cars before, and most cars for years and years later all folded like a house of cards. Even...

    Patrick's W220 S430

    I must apologise. I mis read the battery bit, thought it may have been hybrid. Small, car size batteries allow BEV’s & hybrids to start, or turn on before the traction battery takes over. (Yes I know it’s dumb that a flat battery will render a BEV & some hybrids un drivable even if the traction...
