A small switch, an important job.

The colour of this thing is HOT. Like a sunbeam in its own right. Get a car like this out in the golden hours of autumn and it’s hard to imagine a better combination.

But there’s more to the Sunbeam Tiger than the looks.

Fitting a Ford V8 into the Alpine’s engine bay left almost no clearance around the block. Tiger owners quickly learned that some routine jobs, like changing the spark plugs, meant working by feel rather than sight.

That was one of the trade-offs for having a V8 where the Alpine originally had its four-cylinder engine. More performance, more character, and considerably less room to get a spanner in.

It’s the kind of owner knowledge you only really pick up by living with one.

What’s the job on your classic that you’ve learned to do almost entirely by feel?

Keep everything at your fingertips!

Column-mounted switches bring some of the most-used controls right to the steering wheel, from indicators and lighting to wipers.

When an original switch is worn or damaged, finding the correct replacement can make all the difference.

If you could add any classic to your garage, which one would you choose?

Maybe it’s a car you’ve wanted since you were young, one you’ve always admired, or a model that’s been on your wish list for years.

There’s plenty of choice. What’s yours?

It’s the small details that make a classic feel right.

Panel indicator switches might not be the first thing you notice, but they’re an important part of keeping your classic safe and road-ready. From Lucas TPS1 self-cancelling switches to traditional SPB120 manual units, getting the correct fitment matters.

Holden Vintage & Classic offers quality reproductions with period-correct styling and dependable internals, helping your classic look the part and work as it should.

CAR SPOTLIGHT: MG MIDGET 🇬🇧

There’s something special about an MG Midget. Small, simple and built with one thing in mind: enjoying the drive.

First introduced in 1961, the Midget quickly earned a reputation as an affordable little British sports car with plenty of character. Its lightweight construction, rear-wheel drive and nimble handling made even an ordinary Sunday drive feel like an occasion.

Over the years, the Midget went through several updates and engine changes, but the basic formula stayed the same: keep it light, keep it simple and have fun.

Today, these little MGs remain firm favourites with classic car enthusiasts, whether they’re being carefully restored, regularly driven or simply kept looking their best. Keeping a classic like this on the road means finding the right parts, something we know a thing or two about!

What’s your favourite MG Midget model?
