PS: the original mucho posho Blaupunkt radio has started working, all of its own accord.  It can pick up BBC Five Live, but nothing else so far.

A picture of the Blaupunkt in situ would be nice.

Here you go.  I will look for or take a more close up pic.  The horn ring is still bent, but I don't wish to risk breaking it by trying to get it straight. 

By the way, the panel lights are white, but my phone's camera made them look orange for some reason.

Loving the 'retro' feel with the orange lights look. You would not want to come into close proximity with the radio at speed it looks fairly robust. The Consortium probably has some better horn rings than the one in your photo I'll check.

Found several horn rings in various conditions here are the two best ones.

That's a lovely little vignette of the/your Appia, bit concerned it turned up at the festival of the unexceptionable when it patently isnt!

Wonderful. I love the line "engine the size of a Dualit toaster".

My Appia has not been to the Festival of the Unexceptional.  The film briefly features a Series 1 Appia at the Festival.

I have only driven my own Appia, and not many other cars of its era.  I have driven lots of 70s cars, several 60s cars, but only a few 50s cars.    Would any Appia expert like to drive mine and express an view on whether its steering is normal for an Appia, or could be improved?  Cheers!
