* Triumph T140 / Sunbeam S8 / Norton ES2: our three for 0. It's one of those stories which demonstrates the variety of classic bikes you can buy on a fairly typical budget, and what you should look for when you're browsing
* Ariel History: Steve Wilson examines the story of the House of the Horse, because he's become a bit fascinated by the breed since buying an NH350
* Norton Commando: the show-winning one wot caused all the controversy - and it still hasn't turned a wheel in anger
* Triumph 21 Rebuild: a new series starts as we strip a 350 twin
* Meeting MZ Men: Graham Ham and Daisy join up with the MZ Club
* Touring by MZ: and Phil Speakman roams abroad aboard a 250 tourer
