Thanks for the advice. When I finally get a day at the weekend dry enough to sort it out then I will have a look. I know the place that changed the tyres balanced them on the centre hole. So I might call a few local garages to see if they can balance on the studs. They are Rostyles.

I didn't think of a tyre bulge. I'll have to check them. They're both only a few months old. I was wondering if it could be kingpin or something with the steering rack.

My 77 B has developed a wobble when you get to just below 70. Like the one of the wheels needs balancing. But they're fine. It only happens in a straight line too. When I turn slightly it goes away. Any ideas?

It's very annoying. I've had people do it to me with bikes as well. Usually Facebook Marketplace. Although everyone wants something for free on there.

Another annoying thing is when you go to buy a car and the current owner, who clearly has looked after the car, can't be bothered to make sure it's ...

That fuel doesn't look great to me. Shouldn't it be a lot clearer than that?

Hey,
I can't see the photo's they need permissions to access. But is the damage before or after the main connector coming in under the dashboard? If its after and on the dash loom then £2500 is a lot for the replacement. I've had my B for just over 2 years now and ended up re-wiring the car myself ...

I have read that you can use DOT5.1 with either. Although based on my experience with DOT5.1 on MTB brakes I wouldn't risk it.

I've swapped to LED's on mine for this very reason. On the older filament lamps I've changed my brake switch twice in the last 12 months.

Bought a silicone hose off Amazon. It works perfectly

It maybe a stupid question but are the definately roadster springs not GT ones? Friend of mine has parabolic springs in his roadster and they feel fine. I replaced the leaf springs on my other B last year but they were a lot firmer and I noticed I'd ordered some for a GT rather than a roadster.
