Good illustration, and pertinent description, Patrick. From information gleaned in various Rover publications, particularly relating to mechanical development issues, the effective working life on the Rover 3 litre's first gear was sixty hours. Tractor terminology I say. Regards Styria

Have our most revered gentlemen moved on from this ? I suspect that things have changed greatly. No more Trabbies no more ? Regards Styria N.B. Those were TK's infant days.

Very clean and tidy, and a credit to your efforts. The interior colour scheme ? Simply magnificent. It would indeed be a pleasure to drive this car, and basking in the interior colour scheme. Great purchase. Regards Styria

In years gone by. one of my Rover P5 3 litre Coupes did not have synchromesh on first gear - come to think of it, none of the P4s I have owned, such as Rover 90 (my very first car I ever owned), nor my 1959 - 105, as well as a number of Rover 100s (1960-1962) had no synchromesh on first. You...

Datta boy. A keen eye for detail. Regards Styria

Hi Pete, I am glad that the replacement part has worked out well for you. As indicated previously, I am happy for you to accept the part as a token of goodwill. Regards Styria

Hey Patrick, that's me to a tee !

I could have supplied you with a key.....Hope everything works out okay for you. I have since found the original one I had brought home, but hadn't been able to remember where I out it. Thank you for compliment. Regards Styria

What impressed me with the car, apart from the quite beautiful cream coloured interior, were some of the standard features that came on the car way back then .....e.g. Heated front leather seats, electrically adjusted. Sunroof - slide and rearward opening...

I could have bought the car there and then, but on a test drive familiar to my area, it did not take long to discover a front suspension/bushes rumble that Ultra Tune had overlooked the previous day when they prepared a Blue Slip. The owner had no idea and as I really had no firm intentions to...

However, what was more appealing was the interior. Unfortunately, it seems as though only the older models attract the light coloured upholstery, and anything much newer seems to sport grey.dark grey and black - how disappointing. Anyway, I mustn't digress. You be the judge....

As most of you know, we have had absolutely perfect service from a Honda Jazz (Daisy) that Julie bought in March, 2016. So naturally, I have become more interested in some of the bigger Sedans/Hatchbacks such as the Accord (not Euro version - styling bland to say the least) or even the now...

Missed you my friend. Good to see you on TK. It probably has been a number of years. Regards Styria

Hi Peter, door handle posted yesterday afternoon by Express Post. I hope that it will do the job for you. Regards Styria

Hi Peter, I apologize for not having responded to you properly. Whilst I have been busy, I did forget to post the one I had retrieved originally - and to be perfectly honest, I have mislaid it. However, not all is lost - I have collected a replacement unit which I will post to you tomorrow -...

An expensive exercise, probably the norm from German, and possibly, other manufacturers. I am a subscriber to an overseas news and opinion cast, on all manner of subjects, by the name of Quora. Don't ask me how I became a subscriber, but all of a sudden it would appear in my Mailbox on a regular...

Well BenzBoy, after all this time, I hope it will turn out to be a good car for you. I paid $7500.00 for my 2007 Captiva back in September, 2015 with a mileage of a tick over 112K. kms. Presently it stands at 217,137 as at today's date. It has let me down once with a Fuel Pump issue (partially...

Generally speaking, you hope against hope that the washers themselves are in good and efficient working condition. If not, there is the second hand option, but nowadays spare parts from wreckers are inclined to dry out. It wouldn't be easy to adopt an after market alternative as space under...

I will bring members up to date with progress on new work on GB. As well, I am endeavouring to create an opening for the sale of a number of refurbished timber items. Regards Styria

Keeping thread afloat. Very interesting.
