New to the fold in a Special
#10
1 Clutch dragging a bit ? Plus if the engine revs on choke are high that won't help
2 You could try fitting a Ruby type steering wheel,the rim will be further up from the spline.
5 and 1 Have you owned a classic car before,if not don't expect a 100 year old design car to match the standards of oil tightness,need of a choke and fiddles of it until the engine is warm.
6 All vintage/classic cars may benefit from a session on a rolling road providing the mechanic doing it is used to tuning that age of vehicle.
7 mudguards attached to the axles,bad idea.On a Seven you would be surprised how much the suspension moves.
9 A special I bought was fitted with 17's on the back,swapping them for 19's made it much more relaxing to drive.You say you have to go down to first gear on a steep hill now,it sounds like you don't have too much power now.An Ulster is quite a light car so I doubts you should have to drop to bottom much on the road,what do others think?
A seven is a great fun car but don't expect modern car standards ,but it is capable of doing most things on the road and off in its own way.
