Rosie update!

So Rosie hasn’t been out over summer, when people asked about her the joke became that Rosie and I had something in common. We’re both always right.

That’s because her steering wheel physically wouldn’t turn left! something we discovered in live traffic on the way to car meet in Cheshire. Luckily I managed to pull over safely before she was recovered home.

The problem was the steering column, (not my driving!) which had dropped below the chassis and was catching. 

After a bit of head-scratching and some help from the Standard Motor Club for parts and advice, I had an idea what to do, but not the exact fix or the confidence to do it myself. 

I first met Chris of Jackson Performance Services through a friend when he was mid-way through wrapping a very colourful Lamborghini, but I was to find out his attention to detail extends far beyond wrapping and fixing modern supercars. He saw how gutted I was that I couldn’t enjoy driving Rosie, but also knew I liked to get involved. Once the day’s work was done, Chris stayed behind and guided me through each step of the fix.

Having Rosie up on the ramps instead of lying on a cold floor made all the difference, and I learned a lot in the process!

She’s now running beautifully again, ready for the road trips, rallies, and late-night tinkering sessions ahead.

Huge thanks to Chris for his time, patience, and advice to keep her safe for the miles to come!

Are winter car meets a thing? Is there anything Rosie and I can tag along to? Let me know! (She has a heater so the cold doesn’t bother me!)
In the meantime enjoy some photos of her!
