And I was going to ask - did it come with the tyre pump, or did you manage to find it somewhere ? Those things are as rare as rocking horse poo ! 8)

Found the tyre pump on ebay after about 5 years of looking. Its a NOS one a guy found in his attic from his T250 he sold years ago. Couldnt believe my luck! It also has a NOS single skin headlight which took years to find and the optional number plate holder which is also quite rare to find
