    Hi Julian,

    16:9 (cd player), BM54 to go with my new speakers, plus a few other jobs while I am there.

    They've done this sort of thing before http://www.austingarages.co.uk/featured_car.html

    Hi Simon and welcome. Great looking car, by far the best colour in my opinion. I have No. 070 a mk1 SE also in trophy blue first registered in November 2003. Ive owned her since Nov 7th last year its fantastic and just gets better each time you drive it. Good luck and happy motoring. Ken...

    Hello Simon
    I've got to agree with Ken B above as I used to own that car, it is a great colour.
    Hopefully everything you need to know will be known by someone in the group and everyone is happy to share that knowledge.
    Enjoy

    Spent the day with Nick at Austin Garages today for my 'C' service. Fun day, and apart from a snapped rear spring (at the top, was kinda expecting it after reading a few topics on here) and a noisy air con compressor (I don't use air con, but will look into a recon'd unit) all is fine and funky. Feels like it's running even smoother to boot! RESULT!
