Well, another year, another British Car Day. This time, I came equipped with two Rovers.
Category: Vitesse
Just a quick fix today, getting Tess ready for the show.
One of the things that has bothered me about Tess is the wipers. The RH one sits too high, and they are the weird old pin fitting.
For the first time this year, Tess finally made an appearance out of the garage.
It isn’t a fun job, but it’s one I needed to do. To get Tess on the road I needed to replace the steering rack.
Upon returning home after the WOF check, I felt it was time to sort the bucket of porridge shifting.
The Vitesse had its longest drive in a long time today, to see if it would pass a WOF.
Another familiar job; A pair of upgraded rubber gaskets to replace the leaking cork ones.
It rained heavily the other day, for the first time since getting the Vitesse…. and it leaked. Damn.
In the quest to get the Vitesse ready for its Warrant inspection next week, I had to remedy something else I noticed wasn’t working well.
