Mirrors now sold. Jan

As sold by Nifty but never used and still in their packaging- they are the Le Mans Black Plastic Convex ones with anodised mounting kit which cost £132 new. These mirrors are designed to fit on the windscreen stanchion of a Seven allowing the car to be driven legally without sidescreens. I am looking for £85 plus postage. Please e mail me if interested. Thanks Jan

This screen suitable for an SV has only been used once and is in very good condition . I am looking for £175 plus postage. It could be collected from my home in N Oxfordshire or from Birmingham city centre by arrangement. Please e mail me if you are interested. Thanks Jan

I'll check the cable again and the pedal pivot. Thanks Jan

Memo to self :Check all cables are connected properly and have not been accidentally yanked loose. Sorry to trouble everyone. Jan

When anything other than very light pressure is applied to the throttle it sticks which was somewhat disconcerting when it happened on my blat this morning. I don't think it's a problem with the cable and all seems well in the pedal box so I am guessing it is the spring mechanism that sits between the roller barrels. Should I lubricate if so what should I use? Thanks Jan

Sorry I should have said that I checked the electrolyte level and the cells are covered but high should the level of fluid be? If the battery is the problem (new not so long ago) is it recoverable and do I take it that keeping it connected all the time to the Optimate has caused the problem? Thanks, Jan

I hope someone can give me some advice on this issue. I have had my battery plugged into the Optimate 3 over the winter but when I tried to start it a few weeks ago the battery was flat (pretty new Banner). The green light was displayed on the Optimate so nothing amiss as far as the optimate was concerned (assuming it was functioning correctly). I used jump leads on the 7 went for a blat to charge the battery , put it away for a few more weeks but when I went to start it today whilst the battery was not flat it did not have enough juice to start so back to the jump leads. The optimate again was showing the green light. Something is clearly not right here, is the optimate (also pretty new like the battery) failing in its task? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks Jan

Mark Guy is spot on that was Diana and I out enjoying the sun. I could not go too quick as Diana insisted in taking her 2 dogs with us. You probably didn't spot them as they are of modest proportions. Cheers Jan

Yes a really good day although next time I will stay overnight because I was knackered having got up at 0500. As a consequence I felt a bit off form (that's my explanation for the grass excursions )...but the instruction from Ben was very useful esp as far as Druids was concerned...and no rain . Hope I didn't hold anyone up in the red group...normally would have been in blue but it was full. Thanks to Geoff and the organising team. Cheers Jan

I have a lowered floor in my SV and live in N Oxfordshire (1/2 mile from Warwicks border). You are welcome to come over for a test sit. I am around this weekend so blatmail me if you need to. Cheers Jan

Some useful info here I think I will investigate the two part laqcuer stuff. BTW recently in Tanzania and I got a little sunburnt despite sitting in light shade and wearing a cotton tee shirt 😳 Jan

I have had the same problem. CF cycle wings went very white when exposed to rain and light. AT EFA's suggestion I used Mer Bumper and External Vinyl Cleaning Gel which made a big improvement. You have to use it regularly although lately I also used Turtle Wax Black Flash Trim Wax as an additional coating and that helped . The CF is still a bit dull but at least it is now black. Cheers Jan

No reading at all on the temp gauge. Can someone please help me with a description of any tests I can carry out to ascertain whether it's the gauge, sender, wiring etc. I have checked the connections and they look OK. Help much appreciated. Thanks Jan

is my new router working?
