I was wondering if anybody could offer advice on new carpet sets in the UK for my Tiger? I’ve had a look around the internet and found a number of “off-the-peg” solutions and was wondering whether anybody had any experience with these sets. Do they fit well? Do they need fettling? What is the qualit...

Hi Cheshirecat. I got my Tiger back in Feb. when I bought it I knew it had a leaky Header tank, so expected to do some work. I scrolled through most of the tec forums to see what overheating probs guys had over the years. what I found was that if you have a pretty stock car(as is mine) with a origi...

Thanks bigbob

I'm fairly certain that the gauge is okay. It is proper overheating ... you can hear it boiling away.

I will flush the rad out over the weekend to see if that improves things.

GRC seems to be suffering with an intermittent overheating problem. Sometimes she runs fine, sometimes she seems to overheat in an instant. I'm struggling to diagnose the problem. The story so far ... When I picked her a couple of weeks ago the fan belt gave way after 100 miles and she quickly overh...

Does anybody have any recommendations for a Tiger specialist in the North West of England. I'm 20 minutes south of Chester, so Cheshire, Merseyside, Shropshire, North Wales would be good for me.

GRC needs a good looking at!

Are any Tiger owners planning on going to the Cholmondeley Classic Car show in Cheshire on 6th September?

I just want to drive and enjoy her. I'd like to tidy her up a bit. Structurally she's pretty good. Some very minor paint bubbles but not rust induced. The underside looks good. There's no undersell hiding goodness knows what. Mechanically she needs a good service and tune-up (which is happening tomo...

Yep. First classic car of any sort ... although I've wanted one for close to 30 years. I'm afraid I'll be bombarding the forum and Facebook with questions over the next few months (years).

Thanks Simon for helping new member Doug. I can't explain the silence of Forum readership with this question. I can say that unlike Facebook your response will stay in sight here for others to read at will, and who knows garner some more responses! Whereas, IMHO, FB is way to superficial and 'discu...

Thanks guys.

I'd gone with the Castrol Valvemaster Plus as the additive, Valvoline VR1 oil, and Bluecol for the coolant.

Hi Guys I'm about to step into Tiger ownership and would really appreciate some advice on fluids ... What additives are recommended for use with unleaded fuel? I've seen some suggestions that nothing at all is required, but more general info suggests that an additive would avoid pinking. Are there a...

A Members Area makes a lot of sense. As well as the things I mentioned, maybe the electronic archive of old Cats Whiskers should be members only.

Oh, I also regularly look at the Tiger and UK Facebook pages.

Have you thought about asking for feedback on Facebook?

Hi Graham The new site looks really good. As you know, I don't own a Tiger yet but I'm actively looking. There are a couple of things that I would find useful that I can't find ... I'm sure I've seen somewhere that the club can help with vehicle inspections, but I can't find any details of how to ac...

It's sold this time .....
