Anyone tell me a scrapyard source of an umbrella handbrake. I know 2CV, some old Renaults, Rover P5, XJ6 etc had them but they aren't exactly common in scrapyards now so I'm after a relatively modern vehicles that there is a reasonable chance of finding Thanks. Paul H

Mercedes W126 S-Class had one - again not the most common car to have one. I've got a feeling that the 1994 on C class had them too although I could be mistaken!

My Mahindra has one ! Virtually impossible to reach though with seatbelt on as hidden under the lowest point of the dash. I'm interested in one for a potential kit car that will need some alterations to suit my disabilities. Paul H

I think Bedford Midi's have them. Again a bit old but any commercials with bench seats might have them. Early Cortinas, Classics and Corsairs had them as well, remember my Dad doing handbrake turns in the Classic !

Just been looking for information about my hand condition and have come across this - www.alfredbekker.co.uk/driving-aids/easy-release-hand-brake/#!prettyPhoto which might be of interest to other people with relatives etc who could have similar problems pushing handbrake button. Clip on so can be used on hire cars etc. Paul H

1989 Peugeot 205. You know, the one that was parked in a ditch on the campsite at RRG'17... the glass is always full. but the ratio of air to water may vary.
