Very nice! I'm surprised by the UNIPART filter, or was it new old stock? everything I've bought of late had MG Rover on it, or now just a white filter case.

As I've failed to show up so far I will be coming to the AGM all being well; it's a pleasant drive up the Fossway at this time of year!

Yep the one that Mark took off mine had more perforations than a lace table cloth; plus a couple of straight edged slots where it looked like it had been 'encouraged' by a straight edged tool of some description. So it's a good idea to inspect for prior bodgery!
