Interesting to see what this eventually makes given it has only just been listed and is over £200...

Would someone be able to tell me the diameter and height of the correct bottle?
Mine looks pretty large (diameter: 95mm, height: 200mm) and has a different marking on the bottom.

Thanks,
Daniel

Yes it is... Brand new (and horrid) numberplates, Dodgy looking speedo with a Mk2 bezel, 850 interior (in fact it is an 850.... or its so early they hadn't got round to putting boot board brackets, das htop vinyl, brocade seats etc... !). Interesting no under bonnet shot...I bet its hydro...
