Alec,
If I could find one of those Icebergs (and it was OK) - I'd do just that. Buy me THE diesel...

It's a TR, what's fuel consumption got to do with it ?

If fuel consumption is relevant, buy a diesel . . . .

Cheers,

There is still a space on the offside!

Or is that where you hide your keys?[:D]

That space looks wallet-sized to me!

I get 19 mpg no matter what in the 2 ltr.

I expect less when I get the TR7V8 running!

I know,
I was there with John when you "lost" them.
Do like your LED mods.
The mods to the rear lights look good, I like the red/white only lamps, taking out the orange improves things.
Almost cracked the LED fog lamp mod!
