Nicely done. The only critiscism I have are the wheels. I don't know whether it's the light but the wheels are lacking the black that make the wheels have depth. The picnic trays look very professional.  |

Very smart especially the tables - see the AED has gone - is the coil still thiefproof?

Does anyone know why the underbonnet lamps are off-set?
Just curious to know if there is a logical explanation.
Cheers

The Wheels:
I got as far as removing the black prior to refurbishing.
The chrome under the black paint was good and so I polished it. Not as per spec I realise but....
I always thought the Rover shouild have been fitted with tables. These were a spare set for my daughter`s Princess 1300 VDP. Having spare seats for the Coupe I thought "Why not". Took half an hour each to fit.
The manual coke does leave the coil vunerable but the car has a battery switch in the boot.
The choke is very heavy and Lynne finds it a real effort to pull, she also leaves it out too long. Anyone fited a really smooth choke with MASSIVE warning light?
The car is used daily and so a few other mods have been made. Electronic flasher unit and foil reflectors in the side lights and indecators. The headlights are halogen. Rear seat belts also fitted.
Thanks for the interest
Lynne and John Stacey (Bristol)

Diane finds our new Wadhams choke cable is really light in use very light to use - the old one was very heavy
The standard orange P5 Coldstart light I fitted in the redundant blanked off hole in the console is quite startling and very annoying as its suddenly started sticking and staying on long after the Cold start has been pushed fully in.
