For a man with a gauge fetish-you'd have thought a reliable fuel gauge would be higher up his list :shock:

Unless he just likes to look at his ambient temperature gauge whilst listening to the tick,tick of his hazards as he gets colder and colder :oops:


Most bizarre :roll:

Oh man! You really arn't going to live it down!

That reminds me, my dad was turning out some old files the otherday, and amongst them were some Mk1 and 2 300 boshures including an accesory brosure which included a fuel can and a frame to bolt into the boot. I propose we locate one and get one for James ;)
