The Meteor.
Dear Susan
She does look very nice doesn,t she Mine has the same problem
with the heater tap stuck in the cold position, BBRRR it is possible
to lay on your back in the drivers footwell and reach the heater tap
mine is all connected with the rods and the cables all in place, but just
appears to be something in the way of the rods somewhere. I don,t
want to force them and damage anything at the moment but good
luck with sorting it out.
Hope this helps.

until the old boy gave it to the garage it was one owner, not sure if the garage sent off the old V5 ( an old blue one came with the car , the back was filled in in the garages name but not sure if they ever sent it off)
