Beautiful car, Aero, well done! Just a thought, maybe if you'd specified the SUPERDRY model, you wouldn't have got so wet on the drive home! GerryWal.

Come to think of it, does your new one have a disc brake or drum brake? I wonder what MMC (or you) decided upon?

I assume you mean the rear? The ones I saw in the factory at the weekend are all drums.

Interesting the light arrangement at the rear, with only the two units above the numberplate being brake lights. Also the overall light positions and types. Certainly bears looking at closely as it appears it would not be too hard to use the units on a vintage twin. In case anyone wonders, no vintage trike should be original in this respect now as the law on rear lighting changed in the 1950s and is one of the few motoring laws to be retrospective. Many now use lights from a Triumph Mayflower but the modern units look as though they may present an acceptable alternative. Here's a photo with all lights showing Martyn, number two s-i-l (my passenger) has even obligingly turned on the rear fog light:  Doesn't the trike look tiny compared with that Volvo XC90? Hope that helps with your decision making process As regards strictly non-legal number plates, I've driven the Aero SS with black number plates for some 18-months and have only just had legal ones fitted. During that time I have only had a verbal warning once by a BiB who came over to look at the car in a petrol station and knew exactly what model it was as he was a PH aficionado.

Just a thought, if you'd ordered the SUPERDRY model perhaps you wouldn't have got so wet on the drive home! Thanks Gerry! Many thanks also for all the other comments, you're right Vincent as advised above I've just had the number plates swapped for legal ones on the Aero. I just thought it was time, rather than any intervention from the BiB.  Thanks and see you at the Classic Andy.  Lastly Jay, good to see you on the video and nice to meet you in Malvern!
