On the motoring theme the RS3100 came out of the garage for the first time since mid-November.

Unfortunatly yhe wet spots in the lower center of the picture are the first signs of the hose from the heater to water pump failing. At least happening just as the engine was getting to temperature means no damage, just need to find a new pipe which just happens to be the rarest of the set. ho Hum, joys of classic motoring, the part that failed was 36 years old after all.

Better renew the tax disc before venturing forth on the roads, back in the early 70's you could buy a car with 4 months tax on it, this is the one that came with the car when it was first registered!

The dealer sticker is a reproduction.
