Re: Sphincter test.
I had a similar experience several years ago when on a tour in the Isle of Man. About half a mile from the hotel a jam sandwich was lying in wait at a hairpin bend and I was invited to pull over. Thankfully they were very understanding and gave me a blue light escort back to the hotel.

Re: RH fan turns wrong way round - from factory?
You’ve probably already discounted it but might the offending fan have been fitted on it’s spindle the wrong way round?

Welcome aboard. Your car looks like it's already had the tlc - it appears very respectable in the pic.

Re: New owner Greetings & Basic Questions S3 2+2 '72
Nope, I’m Canterbury way Joe. Incidentally, what’s the lie of the land up in the big smoke regarding traffic calming measures, specifically speed bumps. I’m always weary of taking my car into town centres for fear of decoupling the exhaust from the car.

The E-type Forum. One of the few places where one can tell the world about one’s E-type collection without appearing crass, rude or bragging. Love it.

Kenlowe query
Hi Guru’s, the fan on my S3 is failing to come on when the Kenlowe tells it to. There’s power to the switch (the orange light is on) and all the fuses behind the dashboard are ok. Anyone got any pearls of wisdom or is this going to be a back to the mechanic job? https://i.postimg.cc/3NX7Pw0v/0-E33-F...
Re: New Owner
Glad to hear Mrs Kevin is involved with your E-type adventures. My good lady was totally on board when we bought our series 3, luckily for me she’s always had a soft spot for old cars, it can make all the difference to the enjoyment of a hobby.

Re: At long last
Seeing as you mention breakdowns Bob I thought I'd give you a taster. This was on Brighton seafront last year. Other notable breakdown locations were Wickes car park at Ramsgate, and on the ferry coming back from the Isle of Man. Happy days! Loving the pale blue on your series 3 by the way. https://...

Re: New member Hampshire
I'm not sure why nobody's responded to you Kevin. Have you tried looking at the Federation of Historic British Vehicle Club's website? Not sure if there's any help to be had there - just thinking aloud really.

Re: Thought and Contemplation
I’m sure nostalgia does play a significant part in the desire of E-type ownership, but obviously as time marches on there will be fewer of this class of buyer. Our cars really do hold their own when out and about though, the number of head-turns and comments we get from youngsters who don’t even kno...

Dale are you aware the wheel can be adjusted up and down (and in and out).

Re: Replacing rubber seal round rear door glass
Thanks gents. I’ve done a little homework, (YouTube) and have read the chapter in Chris Rooke’s book on fitting a front screen (not nice reading!), but at least I know the glass came out of the door so will (in theory!) go back in again. Off to buy some parts, tools, lubricant, string, and a swear-b...
