Actually Andrew, the P43t base is used on the 3-prong halogen bulbs and it is those that are often known as '472' (or 'P472' or 'H4'). The round base is P45t. Here's a bit more explanation of why 'selective yellow' lamps are better in bad weather conditions and the reason that the French...

Someone above mentioned yellow halogens from Der fransoze. As far as I can see they only sell the 3-prong h4 fitting. If you've got the round '410'-type fitting, I sell suitable yellow halogens on my website, here...

Just a reminder, for those of you with older (late 60s /70s) Results (or other French classics) that you can refurbish your original 'Cipa' mirrors, (or 'Geco' or 'Gemo'): https://retrospecparts.com/14-mirror-parts

Thanks Simon. I'll investigate that.

Does anyone recognise this barrel? It has been suggested that it's from a Renault, (possibility an Estefette), but do you think? It's just 10mm diameter (at the section where the tumblers are) and about 47mm long (I'm not sure exactly because the end is broken off). It was fitted to the...

I wouldn't replace a working condenser. New ones don't tend to be as good quality these days.

Many of the replacements available for the earlier metal mirrors are bad quality and don't last long. The original units were much better quality and can be easily refurbished with new convex glasses and surrounds, (available on my website).

It is the driver's responsibility that the car is roadworthy, both in the eyes of the law and as part of an insurance contract. Mot exemption (or having time left on the previous mot) has no bearing on that. Once a car has failed an mot, those failure-defects are on the system for all to see...

Citroën GS wheels are 15 inch.

Hi Duncan. I live down the road in Worthing and popped in to see Bill's van the morning after you saw it. He told me that you'd beaten me to it but we then arranged that if that fell through, I would collect it by this morning. Annoyingly it didn't fall through! . Oh well. Congratulations. It's...

I can't see any photos Bill.

Spotted in Normandy last week

I've got a later one, if that's any good (& a left-hand front one too). £50 each or £80 the pair. Collect from Worthing.

Is the original plastic or metal pipe? 2CVs have 6mm external diameter plastic pipe: Is this any use?: 3 metre length for £8.20: https://www.ecas2cvparts.co.uk/petrol-pipe-clear-nylon-black-45mmx6mmx3mtr-goes-along-chassis-rail-from-front-rear-p-71.html

I use FE-123. It came top in a comparison test in a classic car magazine a couple of years ago. I think it was Practical Classics. It's not cheap but the way I look at it is that you only want to do it once, so using ineffective cheap stuff is a false economy. I can't remember the name of the...

Who would have thought that you could get 9 moths to do that! Are butterflies as easy to train?
