DAVID SIMISTER EDITOR

❚ 1990 MAZDA Eunos Roadster Off for a few days exploring Cornwall’s cliff-top roads. Just hope I can fit all the luggage in the boot on my baby sports car!

JAMES SADLIER MANAGING EDITOR

❚ 2000 MAZDA MX-5 NB News just in: the MX-5 does exist, and Papa Sadlier insists the car will be ready in August. Could we see the MX-5 before the end of the summer!?

MIKE LE CAPLAIN PRODUCTION EDITOR

❚ 2001 MGF 1.8i Planning to remove the brand-new battery while I’m sunning myself abroad so I don’t come back to a dead MGF. Again. #flatbatter­yworries

JON BURGESS NEWS EDITOR

❚ 1994 JEEP Cherokee The garage is taking so long to sort it out, I’m beginning to think it was some kind of hallucinat­ion. At least when it’s (eventually) sorted it’ll have a new MoT.

CHARLIE CALDERWOOD STAFF WRITER

❚ 1999 BMW 318Ti With nothing major to do with the BMW I’m trying to find some new headlamps for it. The reflectors have dulled, making the lights dim.

CHRIS HOPE FEATURES EDITOR

❚ 1980 TRIUMPH TR7 FHC The TR doesn’t seem to be minding the steamy temperatur­es too much; in fact it’s running rather well. Plus, having the Webasto roof is a massive boon at the moment.

RICHARD GUNN SENIOR CONTRIBUTO­R

❚ 1993 FIAT Panda 1.1 Selecta Hot-climate-built Panda not fitted with a sunroof. Cold-weatherpro­ofed Volvo is, as is the Saab. It’s a mad, mad, mad and quite hot world!
