  3. One up today at 1650 on Crofton Road heading towards Orpington Station. The sun was in my eyes but I think the registration was AIJ 9996. The car looked stunning in the bright sunlight. Peter
  4. I think this may be the car belonging to the father of one of the coaches at Bromley Tennis Centre. The owner isn't a club member to my knowledge. Peter
  5. The clear perspex on my block has cracked, so I'm looking for a replacement, either just perspex or the whole block. Peter
  6. Dave Andrews fitted and set up my verniers on my R300K many years ago. Give him a call and take his advice. (I can't recall what make mine are.) Peter
  7. In dark green in Orpington today. What a pig ugly Stevie Wonder styled lump of expensive metal! It looks like one of those badly modified Austin Ambassador type cars seen in India with a RR Grille hammered onto the front of the bonnet. Peter
  8. Piers - my Spotted post of 11 July may be relevant: "Keep the eyes peeled in Hythe and surrounds The tennis coach who leads my cardio tennis exercise class on Thursday morning is a young petrolhead saving to get enough £££s to insure a 09 plate Alfa. We talk a fair bit about cars between exercises - rather he talks, I gasp - while the women there chat about less interesting stuff. His father has bought a Seven on a 19 plate which he drove down to Le Mans. The tennis chappy doesn't know which model and the one photo he has was a shot of the back, but I suspect a 360 or 420. From the photo the car appears to be grey or black with black or grey stripes. His father is not yet a Club member, so if you see him, you know what to do... Peter"
  9. Today lunchtime in Westmount Road, Eltham. Peter

    Petrol smell

    Rob at BOSS RACING uses an adhesive used in the aviation industry to glue the gasket as it is more resistant to deterioration caused by the fuel. Can't remember its name... Peter
  11. Chris - I'd never trust a shiny person in a Seven... Peter
  12. Heading south with full hood up. Saw you at 1120 ish today. We were heading northwards in the tintop into torrential rain. Peter
  13. Aah. Thanks Ian. (I don't do FB.) Peter

  15. Today heading into Eynsford from the Otford at 1340. I was in my orange Seven. We exchanged waves. Peter
  16. Today, 3 June, heading north at about 1050. Peter
  17. The roller barrels on my K R300 are only adjustable in pairs as far as I can remember. I haven't needed to balance them for some time. Peter
  18. Well done Chris. It looks like you hooked up that run pretty well. Peter
  19. Today at 1335, two up (dad and son?) coming onto Crofton Road. Peter
  20. 3ft single bed, slated base. Cast iron painted white with paintwork missing in a few places. Headboard at highest point is 115cm. Footboard at highest point is 84cm. Head to footboard is 200cm. Base at its highest is 48cm, and 38cm at lowest. Pictures available. £30 (collection or GONADS), or £30 plus a small charge for delivery in South London or North Kent/ North East Surrey.

  21. One up spotted at 1510 on 2 November passing Stephen James BMW dealership heading towards Bromley. I was in the black X5 that tooted. Peter
  22. TP are a well known and respected make of garden play equipment. 2x Metal A frames each with cross strut. 220 cm tall. 250 cm wide at base. These are secured by spikes attached to the end of the legs which one drives into the lawn. (The legs could of course be concreted into hard standing if preferred.) 1x Metal top bar 370 cm long 1x Metal top bar 240 cm long. so you have a choice of a two station or three station installation. Similar to this https://www.tptoys.com/swings/tp-triple-metal-swing-set.htm It currently has a swing, spin rope and old 2 seat swing boat attached but these will be removed as they are grotty and the buyer will wish to replace with new equipment. Asking £50 ovno. Collection only though delivery may be possible to a South East address. Peter
  23. It could have been Symmo and me returning from Hethel although there was also a Gulf coloured Seven with us. Peter
  24. I have a RiF low CF aeroscreen. I use a car air vent mobile phone holder - I use the TomTom Go app on my phone - and use the bottom of the aeroscreen on the scuttle like an air vent blade. It is positioned on a thin foam bed to the left of the ACES shift lights and just to the left of the steering wheel up against the edge of the scuttle to give room behind the wheel for gloved hands. Peter
  25. It might be worth speaking to Julian Adams at ACES (01206395324) to give you a pointer or two. A very helpful chap. Peter
