Re: Disc brakes
What mileage does the average cover in a year? Say 3000miles at a sedate 45mph and probably parked up in the winter :roll: What happens to the brake cylinders, especially the front - seized :cry: Answer - fit front discs! Cuts maintenance, pads easier to fit than shoes, cheaper, cylinders don't seiz...

Re: Minor insurance

Re: Minor insurance
Is this a legal requirement or something the insurance companies have dreamt up?

Re: Minor insurance
Hi Geo, thanks for reply So, salvage does have to be paid for if the owner wants it back. Provided the car hasn't been burnt out it is surprising what cab salvaged from a Cat A write off Thanks for the link, very interesting When renewing insurance ask plenty of questions, even more if it's you "dai...

Re: Ital to Minor top hose
Cut off the pipe on the radiator leaving approx 1" and purchase a rad hose with a 90deg bend from your local motor factor, make sure you get the correct internal diameter, or cut a Minor bottom hose to fit

Minor insurance
I've been ringing around re insurance and it is interesting to note that Footman James now charge an extra premium of £12 to guarantee the owner gets back the salvage in the case of a Category A or B insurance write off at no extra charge. If the extra premium is not paid then the salvage can be pur...

Heater valve replacement?
Long thread a while back re replacement heater valves which I don't think came up with a solution
So, how about this one?
https://www.t7design.co.uk/brass-heater ... m-5-8.html
Looks a well made valve at a reasonable price but I'm looking for ideas as to where is the best place to mount the valve

Not sure if this link works http://bit.ly/2WqLdk0 but a very interesting Youtube video of the 1963 VSCC Rally at Presteigne.
Nice idea for a Minor Rally especially in the Presteigne/Mid-Wales area where the roads are quiet!
Who's up for it?

Laptop: buying used
My IT needs are minimal so I thought I'd buy a used laptop, not refurbished.
Has anyone got a favourite test I could run on a laptop to see if the hardware and software is functioning correctly
NB. must be simple to carry out
