Re: Season kick-off run (South) - 7 April 2019

Hi everyone! Outline of the event here, exact details to follow. Starting at a 'reasonable time' from somewhere in the Oxford/Bicester area which supplies breakfast (McDonalds seems likely!), over a route yet to be specified but compiled with assistance of Ian and Andy who have detailed knowledge of...

Re: Ariel Club Winter Warmer - 9th February 2019

I thoroughly enjoyed putting some faces against names on here. You're all quite mad, which is very comforting! Hopefully see folk around at future events. Thanks for acting as postman from the factory with the warning triangle I didn’t even realise was missing! Bod Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Re: Rusty driveshafts

Mine got rusty when it lived outdoors for a few years. I found that black smooth hammerite (‘smoothrite’?) works well on the wishbones and pushrods but the driveshafts seem to be made of a different metal, the hammerite didn’t ‘take’ properly and chipped off quite quickly.

Sunday run out from Winchester - JULY 22nd 2018

Great run out today, Winchester - Devizes - Newbury. 10 Atoms and a Lotus was a fantastic turnout, the weather was great and even though we had traffic in a few places it didn’t affect the best bits of road, which was great! [emoji2] Great locations for breakfast, ice cream and lunch, too :) Thanks ...

Re: Sunday run out from Winchester - JULY 22nd 2018

Morning everyone!

Hope everyone’s looking forward to today’s drive :)

One little request - if we try to arrive and leave quietly at the Woolpack that’d be appreciated (trying to make a good impression in case it proves to be a good starting point for future runs!) :)

Re: Sunday run out from Winchester - JULY 22nd 2018

Is anyone else bringing a passenger? Just to let the woolpack know how many of us there will be for breakfast...

Everyone’s going to arrive hungry, right :)

Re: FOR SALE: Atom 2 300 Catalytic Converter

Is this the longer, original variety with the end flanges not quite parallel? If so I’m very interested! Around 29cm long and fit an exhaust system like this? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180721/9e2e41245273a80de652cd2239151bec.jpg (The club cat is the later, shorter version which needs littl...
