Would it be better to change my Herald to a electronic ignition system,,, or leave it original,,, I had a bit of a problem last week in keeping it running  , 

Morning Douglas. I'm a fan of the simpler electronic ignition systems, in that they're fit and forget, so no adjustments or wear as in conventional points. Some of the modern condensors are poor quality too. I use this system on all of my Heralds:

No problems so far, my GT6 also ran on a similar system for over ten years.

Regarding carpets, it all depends on the quality you require; moulded are good but pricey, and my cars would get a lot of wear, so in my own car I've gone for a fairly cheap set from Coverdale Carpets - I think about £149 or so, and I'll be adding underfelt and soundproofing myself.

Thanks Colin,,, yes I am feeling inclined to have the electronic system,,,, I just want to enjoy the car and not worrying if I am going to breakdown,,, I see that a company called accuspark seem to do a kit for about £105,,, I am not sure if it contains everything that I would need,,,, thanks for your advice,,, appreciated
