Hello from Leicestershire!

  1. Hello all,

    We picked up our lovely green 74 bay last night!!

    Drive home was going great until I put it into reverse at the fuel station and the complete lever/linkage mechanism came loose leaving us with no forward gears!

    The recovery truck saved us on the fuel I guess!

    Hope it’s not going to be like this every time it’s taken out!! Still excited for the future!

    Thanks Sean & Alex

  9. Hi from West Lancashire - at least the gear stick is easily put back on with two bolts that are prone to slackening off I am told . I made sure I tightened Mine up well when I plucked up the courage to put a new gear lever on

  11. Welcome:cool:
     
  12. Hey! Yes I fear that’s exactly what happened, we were foolishly 90m from home with not even an adjustable spanner! Bought an empi shifter for it already so should be nicer moving forwards!

    Welcome along. You’re definitely not the first to break down on the way back from picking a bay up! Love the colour.
