When I bought my Series III the intention was to just use it as a local runaround, especially with the price of petrol nowadays.

Next week I'm going to make a 130+ mile journey. Like many old Landy's it does tend to wander a little and keeping it going for a couple of hours plus is going to be hard work.

Just wondered if there was any advice from those of you that do distance in your old Landy?
