Funny that, I feel the same about Quentin Wilson!! He's the nutter that advertises that stuff you pour into your bores to get a recon engine in magazines.

I don't think that is the Alex Riley show. At the end of the trailer it says the programme is available for international transmission at the end of 2015. Alex's programme stars him and is being made for the BBC.

I hope Quentin Wilson has not featured the TR7 because I know he hasn't seen Bullet Reloaded yet. One of his relatives is under instructions to make him sit down with him and watch it!

It is the same series of programmes but TRDC member and long time TR7 owner Alex Riley presents the programme about our cars. It features Alex convertible and my 1977 Fixed head.

Well the TR7 in their trailer is a coupe TDF711R which is a Gloucester registration and looks very nice in the head on shot. Must be a pretty early car? Just noticed it only has a single drivers side door mirror.

Registered on 17/06/77 it is in fact a Jubilee edition complete with the original owners initials on the drivers door handle.
The passenger door mirror was an optional extra.

The passenger one was an option until the cars were built at Canley.

Are you sure about that John, I've got a Premium and it didn't have a passenger door mirror.
