Even today they still are the most important and common transportation vehicles for the personal needs. They give the freedom of mobility on an individual level. They cover the driver in the public space giving him/her confidence and the comfort of a home. But they also represent driver's identity, so the other participants of the traffic interact with the driver through this image represented. Like a second skin over drivers' bodies, automobiles also serve as a form of reflection of the self; they are symbols of status and identity. This study is an extended proposal to a photographic series consists of portraits of customized automobile owners with their vehicles.

    Coventry in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography

    Coventry in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography The Oxford Dictionary of National Biography is the national record of people who have shaped British history, worldwide, from the Romans to the 21st century. The Oxford DNB (ODNB) currently includes the life stories of over 60,000 men and women who died in or before 2017. Over 1,300 of those lives contain references to Coventry, whether of events, offices, institutions, people, places, or sources preserved there. Of these, over 160 men and women in ODNB were either born, baptized, educated, died, or buried there. Many more, of course, spent periods of their life in Coventry and left their mark on the city’s history and its built environment. This survey brings together over 300 lives in ODNB connected with Coventry, ranging over ten centuries, extracted using the advanced search ‘life event’ and ‘full text’ features on the online site (www.oxforddnb.com). The same search functions can be used to explore the biographical histories of other places in the Coventry region: Kenilworth produces references in 229 articles, including 44 key life events; Leamington, 235 and 95; and Nuneaton, 69 and 17, for example. Most public libraries across the UK subscribe to ODNB, which means that the complete dictionary can be accessed for free via a local library. Libraries also offer 'remote access' which makes it possible to log in at any time at home (or anywhere that has internet access). Elsewhere, the ODNB is available online in schools, colleges, universities, and other institutions worldwide.

  • The Rover SD1 V8 Electronic Ignition System – Description and Analysis

    The Rover SD1 V8 Electronic Ignition System – Description and Analysis

    The Rover SD1 V8 Electronic Ignition System – Description and Analysis. Prologue! For me, recently trying to learn, and then write up a complete description of an unfamiliar system from different view-points has created some conscious repetition in order to re-emphasize key points! No bad thing for me and I hope for the reader, as it also reduces errors and omissions, otherwise gratefully received to improve the sense and accuracy of this article. Ignition is the main provider to an engine’s overall performance which demands lively, fat sparks for efficient fuel/air mixture combustion. The aims of the SD1 V8 ignition system are: • Generate typically, a 10-20,000 volt spark from a 12 volt supply. • Direct the spark to each combustion chamber as its piston approaches top, dead center on its compression stroke. • Manage how/when the spark appears inside each combustion chamber depending upon variable engine speed and load. • Send a spark with sufficient energy to guarantee complete mixture combustion. • Perform all the above over the full range of engine temperature, engine speed and load. Synopsis! The standard Rover SD1 V8 ignition system works by taking relatively high current from battery voltage and converting it into a very high voltage capable of jumping a spark plug gap that ignites the combustible mixture inside a cylinder. Known as induction, it happens inside a coil, not unlike the workings of a transformer. From the coil, the high voltage is routed along a single high tension lead to the distributor and thence, via eight leads to the spark plugs where the spark must appear prior to the respective piston reaching the top of its compression stroke.

  • Top Tips for a New MG RV8 Enthusiast

    Top Tips for a New MG RV8 Enthusiast

    Top tips for a new MG RV8 enthusiast Many new owners of the classic MG RV8 model are keen to pick up the tips that fellow enthusiasts who have known the model for many years can pass on, so here we have a checklist of the top tips for a new MG RV8 enthusiast. Although many new enthusiasts buying an MG RV8 are people who had experience of sportscars in the mid and late 1970s, increasingly there is an encouraging increase in younger members buying an MG RV8. For them the RV8 will feel like a car from an earlier age in terms of its handling and maintenance. The tips start with some prudent safety and maintenance checks. Check your coolant expansion tank is not overfilled It is essential you do not overfill the expansion tank. There is a “Coolant Level” indicator on the side of the expansion tank – see the diagram to the left. If it is too full then you can get syphonage from the radiator and then consequent overheating. Source: RV8 Owner’s Handbook AKM7144ENG Replace the plastic coolant filler plug with a brass unit The original coolant filler plug on the top of the vertical RV8 filler tube was produced in plastic and many members have reported problems with it over time. Most RV8 enthusiasts replace that plastic filler plug for a much better unit made in brass with a rubber sealing washer, part number KTP9401 or ARA2404. Change your engine oil regularly The importance of regular oil changes with a V8 engine cannot be repeated too often because the system is a low pressure-high volume system and the oil passageways are prone to sludging up.
