Tell me to FRO if the question's impertinent, but was the injury sustained at work? If so, has it been recorded/reported appropriately?
-
Certainly should be.

Let's see now... Narrow ✅ Light ✅ Bouncy suspension ✅ Better take the Dyane! 😁

In my experience of motor racing preparation, you're always behind schedule! Where are you (and the Rover) based, Rich?

Some sort of subversive assembly occurring in the deep background of this pic... @juular @MrsJuular @Talbot 😁

Shame - decent* Spoons, that. *My standards are flexible...

Cars you didn't know existed until very recently.

Well, THAT looks convenient*... 😁 -
Wiring diagrams: 12.19 http://andern.mg-rover.cz/download/Rover820_825_827.pdf OK, it's the HBoL, but...

That's what it had. The remapper claims it had nothing to do with the ECU failure...

This is the Plan of Spanners, who owned it when we did Scally Rally... EIGHTEEN BLOODY YEARS AGO!!! It's closer to the road than it's been in a very long time. @Stinkwheel did some fine work on it, which Spanners will finish off 😎

BLINGO UPDATE: looks like it is indeed the ECU, so a replacement is being sourced, as well as everything downstream that needs doing at the same time. Is this sensible? Arguably not. Am I going to spend the money anyway? Yes, yes I am, because I really like this car. DYANE NEWS: while changing the 20W50 running-in* oil for Total Racing 10W30, we discovered some evidence of an exhaust blow on the offside. This was due to a loose exhaust manifold nut, so as a precaution they were all changed for the flanged BMW items we use on the racer, then torqued down properly. An iffy inlet manifold stud was sorted too (helicoil) while we were in there. The car was then lent to Laurence for the week for a proper tune-up. This thing FLIES!! ACHTUNG!: the C180K continues to perform to specification.

Shitting in the shallow end. *Bile Hatred* pseudo collection.

Also, at 3:15, what appears to be a pile of Transport & Road Research Laboratory test vehicles...

Fairly sure there was a ferry service between Hamburg and North Shields.

Well-known for faking Aston DB4 Volantes shortly before being thrown off an Alp.

It originated in documentation for chauffeurs from Rolls-Royce. A gentleman's carriage never breaks down, though it may - occasionally - 'fail to proceed'.

Maybe it's like the ferries - you book the ticket expecting to use one car, then turn up in something entirely different because the first one wouldn't start/you sold it/the rust pixies ate it.
