Re: Britain 1985 vs. France 1971
I remember taking a trip to the Isle of Cumbrae with three pals when C5s were a new thing. One of the cycle shops in Millport had a small fleet of them for hire. Three of us got C5s and one of our party, who had just treated himself to a new Escort XR3i, was designated our emergency recovery man. Th...

Re: 150 MPH Number plate
I almost forgot the best one (or pair); along Chelsea embankment, opposite the house boats, there used to be two cars; and Aston Martin and a Bentley if I recall. They were "2 BE" and "NOT 2B". And a pair of licence plates were once cited in a divorce case; B00 800 and 800 B00. I never heard whethe...

I've measured my gearbox and the position of the speedo drive relative to the oil filler appears to be as shown below https://s25.postimg.cc/vutkyvogf/Gearbox.jpg The big question is of c...
