great woodwork link - I'll take my 410 wood there. Does anyone have a similar recommendation for chrome plating? I've been told I can't decorate the ground floor of the house with car interiors any more, so it's time to ship parts out...

Check my website out at Home - The Bristol 411 for mention of chroming company...they did an excellent job on mine. DO mention my name. They are a bit chaotic so make sure they know exactly what you want and when.

Great. Thank you, Mr Phillips. I'll follow up on your lead.

You could just make it easy for us and provide the details here ....

Is this the company Letchworth Plating Company ?

Yup - that is correct.

Just completed a round trip to Amsterdam. Excellent journey only marred by petrol at 1.72 euros a litre and me averaging 13mpg...! Lots of petrol stops.

I dealt with the excessive wind noise around the windows by applying good old-fashioned draught excluder tape from the local DIY shop - cost £5. Worked a treat and I could hear Radio 4 clearly and quietly at 85-90mph. Not sure how long it will last but a good quick fix. And we did have a LOT of rain so thank the lord I fixed the wipers the week before.

Anyone know if there is a fuse for the engine fan over-ride switch, fan-on light AND the headlamp main beam blue light on the instrument panel? They all seemed to stop working at the same time. Not had a chance to check the circuits yet.
