I race my V8 TD and often remove the windshield while doing so. Wind buffeting is much less with it off and just running a Brooklands. Don’t know if that is an option for you.

Congrats on the new whip, Bill.
Some guys have made behind-the-seat wind screens like you see on Boxsters and such to ameliorate the reverse blow-through you experience in open cars at speed.
This is a bit of an arts and crafts project but very simple in principle, and reasonably effective.
My solution is to stay off the interstate highways,…[Read more]

Just bought a factory built (1990) MB Marlene on Hagerty auction last week. I ordered a manual from MGMagicClassicMotorParts.com at the recommendation of another club member. It is due in Wednesday. I’ll let you know if it is any good.

Good evening TDr (and other replica) fans.
It’s been over three years since I solicited donations. But the time has come.
A couple months ago I reimbursed Stephen for a three year renewal for our domain license. That payment was $395.00. I came close to a break even point three years ago; but have now paid out $403.50.

I’ll be sure to upload the scans/documents when I obtain them post-purchase, for any others who may end up obtaining a Marlene model.

THANK YOU. I was about ready to tear my hair out. No matter how I searched online, I just kept getting sent to the same dead-ends. The only conclusion that I could come to was that the Duchess would have a near identical wiring schematic. As much as I wish I didn’t have to buy it, I won’t look a gift-horse in the mouth.

I have a London Roadster that I am looking to re tool the dash. I was thinking of putting in a infotainment system to handle hands free. Here in NY it is the Law. Plus love to have android auto. So the question is, has anyone done this and any suggestions. I am looking to change over the old radio cutout to something that would handle a single din.

Hello Kurt
Regrettably, Classic Roadsters Ltd. Closed their door decades ago. We have their assembly manual for a VW based Duchess (their TD replica). But we don’t have a Marlene manual. Sorry!

This might be more coherent.
First you go to your own thing. Upper right corner it should say something like “Howdy, Happy Jack.” Click on that and you get a drop-down menu. At the bottom it says “media.” Hover over that with your curser and you should see another drop-down menu with “albums,” “photos” “videos.” Click on “photos.”
