On my trip down to Canberra last year, I had an annoying wheel wobble right at 110km/h. The tyres were quite new, so I don't think they were balanced properly. But due to covid, its been over a year since they were fitted. I took the car to a different tyre place today, who i thought did...

It was always impressive what the smaller British car makers could do before they were amalgamated into British Leyland. Back in the 60s, makers like Rover and Jaguar were a fraction the size of Mercedes-Benz who were a fraction of the size of the big guys like GM, Ford etc. It's easy to...

I promised last week that I would complete the story of the Rover OHC engine, best known in the Rover 2000 but an engine that had a far more extensive history and very nearly ended up in Land-Rovers as well. So here is the second part of the story. As usual, pictures follow in the Comments and...

This little wooden model was the proposal for the L4 Land Rover with three-cylinder engine... yes, seriously! Here's the six-cylinder intended for the P7 saloon. here's the trial of the six-cylinder in a Land Rover buck. The grille panel has been moved forwards and there are steering columns...

https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/1994-mercedes-benz-e-class-e280-auto/SSE-AD-13675947? This is a real steal. the paint is a bit average, the E280 was only imported for about 18 months before they switched to the anemic E220 wagon. These cars have the wiring harness problems, but at...

Great update. Good to hear it’s now running.
