I would imagine around 10.30-11.00 depending on the pitstops on route!

Gear linkage under the cover that’s my guess. Bushes gone awol

Shame that you can’t make it

+1 on Sean's theory, could be linkage bushes under the cover at rear of tunnel or the bush at the front of the tunnel beneath the gearstick (supports the front end of the selector rod) both are a relatively easy fix, fingers crossed that's all it is.

Well what a great day out!

Met faces both old and new. Had almost a full rainbow of colours at Newport pagnell. Marcus broke down with two fuel pumps being the issue! Who knew more should be less.
Set off once we had all cars running with our car leading as no one want us behind them due to dodgy brakes
A meander up the m1 to be greeted at the show by Danny busy organising the parking, (many thanks for all of your hard work, we owe you a pint some time soon).

Let’s just say a spirited drive home ensued with Paul911 bating an Austin metro of all things.

Hopefully Marcus has got home in one piece
