Thanks Robert. I can certainly think of one or two others in the A7 world who have wished to continue driving despite similar health issues, & I imagine others may be interested that it can be done (reversibly at that).
I'm curious to know how it was done - were those simple mechanical levers, perhaps attached to Bowden cables? Or was there some hydraulic or electro-mechanical assistance perhaps? It would be quite a heave to apply brakes or clutch by hand, unless those were pretty long levers. Even then they would have to be attached to something fairly solid.
Was gear changing done with hands off the wheel? Or could you pull the lever while steering (like a motorbike).
