Added a new, well 2nd hand, handbrake lever the other day. Reason for replacement was flaky knob syndrome - chrome plating peeling off release button (good old MGR quality). Had a play with a 2nd one I got from scrappy and it seems replacing whole assembly is the easier option - button does unscrew but is so tight the chances are you'll mangle it up when replacing.

After reading of someone elses problems with seat mounts I have added some large square washers to my rear mounts - had to repair front ones a couple of months ago. Touch wood all will be OK now for a while at least.

Worth having a look at mounts if you haven't already - seems a problem most, if not all, 45/ZS models may suffer from eventually.

About time I added a more up to date pic I think.
Not done much to the Zed in the last couple of years apart from recently added the 180 sills & spoilers.
