probably be a demic anyway so all this will be academic.

And indeed it was, you have to go have a peep though don't you, someone
somewhere must get a bargain every now and then!

Can you post some pics of yours somewhere,

I only have some from a few years back. Steve might have some more from
Alfa day. It's at the mech's ATM to have the regulator replaced, but the
ebyer sent me the wrong side

I'll dig something up up though.

Nope, last Alfa day we both attended was when I had a 33 16v and you
took the 116.
