You wouldn't happen to have the gauges off a db4 as well as they are the same as a Hillman Minx
(yes I checked the part numbers and they match! :? )

It's worse than that, he borrowed your book because he needed it to help him fit one of these newfangled radiogramophone jobbies into my car, which I only said he could use to drive around in during his worldwide tour of the UK in 1981. I did hear a whisper that our Rich had stashed the old thing in a steading somewhere by Gloucester to spare my potential annoyance after he and a young woman - known to her clients as Santa's Little Helper - did some very insignificant damage to the bonnet, the back seat and the roof cloth. I wonder what became of the car, it may be worth as much as a hundred pounds now. :|

Rich, don't worry about the stiletto marks, it's OK, but please bring me back the Aston or buy me a similar one to replace it. :P
