kev's Fleet, TR7V8,Lotus Elan, Morris Minor, Range Rover, MX5, StreetKA and Fiesta

[kevins]

Range Rover Passed MOT with the usual advisories (wax on brake pipes, rusty springs, slight fraying on seat belts and minor oil leaks)

Heated seats are also connected up and working on Fiesta.

After not being used for 4 or 5 months I also went and got the minor started, after a bit of input from the Rangie it started easily.

I need to get it home and give it a going over, issues I know about are:  clonking from front somewhere, leaking rear dampers(have telescopic kit to fit), rear springs sagged (have a pair of Traveller ones), its losing brake fluid, smokes at idle . ( I think the last 2 may be linked via the servo).

There are also a couple of body bits which need doing before it heads up to my son in Scunthorpe, the paint on the roof is very thin in places, and there is the common issue of a crack at the waist line just behind the door.

As they are both doing 1000 miles a month a service for the fiesta and Street Ka are first on the agenda though.

Need to get the new wheels / tyres on the TR to.
