Whitby MRU

Mid 90's? Seem to recall Southwold had one from my time doing Community Service with Auxiliary  Coastguard for the Duke of Edinburgh scheme.

Arghhhhhhhhhh, a Vauxhall Brava!!!!!

These vehicles had to have a clutch every service. When Vauxhall were asked why, they said that a heavy duty clutch wasn't included in the spec. So they were asked to supply 36 heavy duty clutches and they would be sent out to all stations with the vehicles for a mod. The answer came back that they didn't actually do a heavy duty clutch for the Brava!

Most of them died due to terminal tin worm despite being wax oiled annually.

Do you mean Lowestoft? Southwold had the Astra Van much better than the Bravas 

My mistake. Must be getting old
