Re: Gaydon Lanchester
Yes the linkage to the gearbox was lacking and the fluid level in the flywheel was not as one would have expected

Re: Gaydon Lanchester
a couple on the ramps when i was there, sure you photographed these at the weekend.
One would think a drop of oil could be bought with what they charge for a seven year old to enter, guess we need to take a oil can if i go again but would rather go to Holt .
