Magnus at 50
Magnus is back, on the road, with a brand new MOT 2 weeks after his 50th birthday!
Thanks to all of you who've helped with parts, advice and moral support this year. Andy.

Glad you've got Magnus back on the road where he belongs. |

Yeah, happy days: 3 days back on the road and I have a knackered alternator - my 5th in 7 years....Why are so many parts rubbish?

Woodman;
Car looks great, and congrats on MOT...after correcting this minor setback with Alt, you will be able to enjoy it I'm sure... I have to agree with previous poster...Bosch Alts typically are quite reliable and normally don't do not go bad with anywhere near a frequency you've experienced... when they go bad, do you install proper rebuilds, or a (well)used, unknown condition, 30A SEV Marshall that came out of scrapper?...and did it/do they go bad electrically, or mechanically? Do tell! Cheers |
