Well that was a saga to remember. My long dark journey into night has ended, yesterday Tom fitted my refurbished and improved windscreen wipers. The heroic members, who’s knowledge of the A2 surpasses that of most professional mechanic, have solved the mystery of my failed wipers. My garage couldn’t help and even managed to bend a component when replacing the bonnet, again this was spotted and fix on top of the actual repair. Parked up for six months close to the sea and salt air, the wipers had rusted and seized up burning out the motor leaving me stranded in heavy rain. A temporary fix and a spare motor let me go on a 200 mile journey in even worse weather conditions, now, not only is everything done and dusted a piece of internal trim broken by the garage was also replaced. Most owners clubs seem to have an elitist membership, usually confined to expensive restoration of past very expensive marques beyond the pockets of us mortals. Here we have a little car that has worked it’s way into our hearts and a determination to keep it there. I salute you all.
