Hi,
Happy to say I've just bought a Traveller, by no means immaculate but well maintained.
Collected it on a boiling hot day last week & drove it 260+ miles home, not so much as a spanner on me, let alone breakdown cover!
Only hitch was needing to buy some pvc tape to bodge up a split heater hose that decided to drip hot water on my foot!
Pretty good for a car that has only done a few miles in the last few decades...I'm still grinning!
I see the Devon club meets at the Cowick Barton, I've managed to miss last night's meet but hope to warble my way there next month.
Cheers!

Re: Newby
Hello and welcome.
I think this is what you need, link below, you will want two of them, as it's a fiddly job and you might as well do them both at the same time for piece of mind.
Best wishes,
Mike.

Re: Newby
Welcome my fellow Traveller, time to get the T-cut out and start enjoying. They come up a treat with abit of effort.
The only advice I can give is if your car starts stuttering and being all juddery, first thing to do is replace the condenser. !! They only cost a fiver and even I managed it. Thats the only worry I've had. The other bonus is that parts prices are about a 1/3 the price of what the Dub-boys have to pay ! Advice on the web is great too.

Thanks for the warm welcome & tips.
As they all look ready to to pop, I have a full set of radiator & heater hoses on the way....hopefully in time for a Sunday cussin'n'knuckleskinnin' session!
