Bought E Type 3+ years ago after waiting 40 years!!
It is in good condition but not concours. Was originally US LHD but is now full UK spec, including a change of colour from Regency Red to Brooklands Green although log book says BRG.
Thoroughly enjoyed the E Type Club meeting on 31st May and look forward to many more events.
I have a TR6 that I Sprint and Hillclimb and that takes up a lot of my time.

I am a bit annoyed with myself, I was at the E type weekend and still cannot put faces to names. Perhaps we should wear badges so we will know each other's next time. Then again we could post a picture of ourselves which would help.

I was the E Type with the broken brakes.

Hi Roger

I was also at the club weekend so will probably have seen you and your car somewhere... we need some sort of marker don't we?

And Tony, glad your servo got fixed, it was sounding all doom and gloom at one point with CMC offering to trailer her to Bridgnorth, you left in one piece when we last saw you anyway!

Ah, the brakes! Yes, you were parked next to the gate just inside. I remember looking at your brake pedal resting flat on the floor and thinking "That's discouraging!" Apart from that, the car looked nice.
