I've been up that hill in a Land Rover, never in a Marlin.

No probs. Great to know they will be saved. I will look through my own archives as I think I have some old pics of the Exeter Trial that may be of interest. Peter.

Interesting to see that entry number 149 is running coilovers with the Marina front suspension...

I'm not sure that is a marina front end?

Re: Exeter Trial 2015

Yes Q238 is Marina based, here in 2012, without the coil overs

Surley it must follow that cars regd before 31 Jan 1983 are exempt, unless there is a quirk in the ACTC regs.
