MG steering rack

I've just driven my Tiger for the first time since fitting an MG rack conversion. Must say I'm most impressed with the result, far more responsive without being too heavy to turn. But the old Tiger rack was well worn, so probably a bigger improvement than usual. Highly recommended.
And it passed its MOT first go!!

Don't think I can now wait any longer for mine to come back with the same conversion, especially with the power steering conversion also

....I'm afraid so, it's something called "old age"
Not only will it make the Tiger easier to drive, I also need more power under the bonnet to haul the extra weight I am now personally carrying. Mrs T calls it content living, I call it too many pies. So yes, extra power is needed - just ask "Bigbob" and he's supercharger setup

I think they call that, road testing for the customer,
but in your case I am sure the said specialist is just running you newly built engine.

Tony, just get a nodding dog, flat cap & pipe, re-badge the car "Volvo" and you're sorted for old age.
