Please help us find this car for a dear friend who has had this car for 43 years and it has huge sentimental value. This MGB Roadster KVU9 87G and trailer was stolen from Pontefract North Premier Inn in early hours of 20 Sept 2026. If you know of it’s whereabouts please contact police crime number ...

I run a B with standard rad, cooling fan and coolant. Touch wood it has been fine - we did HERO London Lisbon in it in 30 deg+ over the Pyrenees, several times back and forth. It got a bit warm but did not overheat .

I have just had the same problem ordering 1 - most of the normal suspects seem to be out of stock. I have yet to fit it, but from the last time I did it:

There is no gasket under the shock. As to new bolts etc, for the cost of them I ordered a set of 4 and still have 2 , 1 used when replacing and ...

I have had a chat with them. The standard one they supply is with the harness bar and to have one without will be quite a bit more expensive as is is a special order. Being a simple soul I thought it might be cheaper or at least the same price to leave one bit off. I can only assume there are other ...

Sorry one other thought - on some events ( Rally of the Tests, for example for transport legs ) Tulips are not used but are replaced by abbreviations at the given distance e.g:

I know this is how HERO do it for their events, and as far as I ...

Just in time for me - my anti roll bar has been creeping and contacting the balance weights on full lock, I was just about to get some cut down washers welded on but these look a lot better. I did not know these existed - my jubilee clip alternative did not work

I am looking at fitting a rear rollover cage with a diagonal but no harness bar to our MG BGT. I intend to leave the harnesses attached where they are, at the base of the seat back as I want to be able to fold/unfold the rear seat as required. I am not required to have a rollover cage but would be ...

I have had the same problem on my '73 BGT – same mounting points even with my 1800 engine!

I currently have my 3 point ones mounted at the base of the rear seat back rest with reinforcement plates in the spare wheel well, but as noted above they do go down a bit. I was looking at getting a ...

Thanks, that is just the sort of thing I am after., Plenty to think about for this winter
