Yes it would wouldn't it. West of Cambridge. Send me your email address for fuller details. Regards Alan

50th Anniversary Edition, Black with gold and silver stripe. Dashboard numbered plaque. Page 165 in The Magnificent 7. 17K miles, FSH Caterham/Lotus Main dealer. Further details on request. Alan

How do I find out the colour code for my 7? It's a 2007 50th Anniversary Edition in Metallic Black. I have a new OSF cycle wing in GRP black that will need painting to match the rest of the car. The previous one was damaged by a kamikaze pheasant. Alan

Thanks, guys. From what you say, I should qualify that by saying at lease five years old (my ownership). Any suggestion from where I get one from? I'm in Norfolk and Kings Lynn seems like the nearest Banner dealer. Caterham Cars only do Dry Charge (just add acid) for delivery or Wet Charge, collection from Dartford. Alan 

I have a 1.6 Sigma 125 with a Banner 12V/30AH battery. This slumbers happily with a Banner Trickle Charger and always starts no problems. Today with the sun shinning there was no enough power to engage the starter motor.After some jigging about (another story) it started first time. The question is, is 9 years a suitable life expectancy for a battery or have I missed something? Alan

Spotted traveling east on High Green, Brooke 2 o'clock this afternoon. Yellow with a green stripe. Was that you Dave? You could have given me a lift into Norwich, as it was I had to use the loser cruiser. Lucky I have a Bus Pass. Alan

Red Grinnall Scorpion followed me out of Southwold today towards Beccles. As rare a sight as a Seven today. Alan

Yes that was us, going home after a glorious day at the seaside.

Thanks. I got a new one from Caterham, they had one in stock.

Or is it Minilite or Minator? Anyway I am after a 14" wheel to replace one I damaged a few weeks ago on a greasy roundabout. New or as new condition required. Alan

It looks a bit used. I was after a new one or as new. Thanks I'll try the wanted as DJ suggests

or is it Minilite or Minator? I've damaged one 14" alloy and need a replacement. Caterham have Minator wheel (plus tyre) as "SALE" item but out of stock. Nothing new there then. My local garage tell me mine was made by KN who are now out of business. Any suggestions?

...............on the front cover of Low Flying.

The passenger seems unfazed by it.

No Tax, so it must be Google.

It was mine. There is some pretty spectacular gardens opened there yesterday as well.                                      Alan

A145 South of Beccles. We waved. I have you on the video camera waving back. Can send you a still. Alan

Green with yellow nose, P reg. Enjoying the calm before the storm. I gave you the thumbs up. Alan

Four 7s in West Haddon, a red, black and two Blue on Saturday and Sunday. It may have been a Wight Blat reunion. Well done Linda.

My Sigma has been doing that intermittently. At the last service Caterham said a replacement starter motor is needed. The K-click article in July Lowflying has me thinking though. Alan

I've had two plastic radiators, both leaked when cold. When the engine was warm it sealed and stopped. Aluminium radiator replacement is the answer. No leaks now. Alan

50th Anniversary Sigma SV.

Several 7's in Watton, Norfolk on Sunday. Including mine

and mine, a great day. Alan & Jackie

Yes you're right Mike. You also solved my other dilemma, does the single washer go under or over? So much easier in daylight as well. Cheers Alan. It was CC half hood.

I just bought a half hood for a series 5. The 13mm bolt located by the roll bar for the side straps has two washers on each. With the straps in place the the bolts are just high enough to snag the hoops for the full hood and at the back the hoops sit just a tad too high. Question is do those bolts have another function or are they just there waiting for the inevitable purpose? Can you get by with one or no washers on the bolts? Alan

27th in Southwold, Suffolk. Blue with C7 registration. I thought the roads were too wet for mine, still what do I know. Alan

The soft bits one only fits between the headrests. I was thinking the rollbar covers a bigger area and that would that be more effective. What did you use for the mesh on the one you made? Was that attached to the rollbar by Velcro? Regards Alan
