The mostly dull, few years story of my ownership of a 1954 Austin A40 Somerset. From buying her on 25th Aug 2013 to selling her and her being taken away on 22nd April 2017. For my own interest, but probably much to the amusement of any long established Austin enthusiasts who stumble across this. And if reading my stories of joy (and woe) is any use to any newbie like me who is thinking of getting into something similar then that's a bonus.

Journey 17th April 2015 - Three Frogs
Lunchtime, lovely day, not very far, hardly worth warming the engine up, but definitely an Amy day.
Conditions: Sunny, patchy cloud, warmish with fresh breezes
Temp : 13°
Journey : The Three Frogs plus a bit!
Distance: 3.5 miles
The "plus a bit" was just Petrol Station / Roundabout / Coppid Beech. Filled to the brim. Should be able to check if fuel line is finally properly fixed under the pressure of a really full tank. Should hopefully be done, at worst maybe jubilee clips maybe need tightening, but hoping not even that.
Also side lights fixed. Just a loose connection in the engine bay. Just fiddled a bit and done.
