What have you done today with your Austin Seven
Having had a superb shakedown trip to Beaulieu a fortnight ago - cruising at a comfortable 40 mph plus over 120 miles - started out to Moreton this a.m only to find it’s running like a three legged dog… won’t pull up hills or even easy gradients. First checks of jets, plugs, points etc changed nothing so limped along for 17 miles and gave up. Just too many serious hills to risk going further…
So, back home courtesy of good old RH breakdown service, and perforce had to travel to Moreton in a modern.
Oh, the ignominy, and the pain, of arriving to see so many Sevens and their happy owners - oh the jealously - and the shame.
Being a spectator and not a participant is no fun, believe me, especially at this unique and wonderful event.
True satisfaction is the delayed fulfilment of ancient wish
