MG TD TF 1500 - Quality Components, Period Accessories

A few years ago I bought some MG T-Series accessories such as mirrors and aeroscreens from the above noted company, which was then at an address in Kendal, Cumbria. I now wish to order yet more parts, but the phone and fax number shown on their brochure is no longer in service.

Can any of you who are in the UK tell me if the company has gone under, or simply moved to a different location and number.

Thank you in advance for any help.

Geoff,
Don't know about the company that you are looking for, but the Brooklands Aero Screens (& the Brooklands steering wheels) are actually made by & are avaliable from Kimble Engineering who used to be in B'han and are now in Dartmouth.
My friend John Kimble can be emailed on Kimble.Dartmouth.UK@Talk21.com
phone 44 1803 835757 fax 44 1803 8345657 AND he has a range of mirrors, AND he makes T Type rubber parts AND he makes lots and lots of T Type chrome bits such as door handles etc etc.
By the way, about this time last year (or earlier) you mentioned you were looking for a radiator blind (muff) that used to be made in Birmingham & I tried to find the manufacturer. The comapany had been based on the Kingsbury Road, not too far from where I live.
I couldn't find it.
Last weekend I discovered that they stopped manufacture in 1992, at which time they threw away the patterns and a huge quantity of stock. Sorry Geoff, its all gone!
Best wishes

Steve,

Many thanks for your information. I'll get on to Kimble's straight away.

Sorry to hear about the other accessory mnfgr. I have just one of their tailored external muffs, and wanted a few more. It always upsets me when I hear of "stuff" being thrown away.
