Moto-Lita are the best and most "period" looking. Also top quality and not expensive. I have one on my MG and it's perfect.

Cheers Nah mate its a GT with 2.0 zetec on bike carbs. Couldnt afford 15k for a real one but thought id go for something different than the usual mk1 and 2 escort choice. I love it! so much more fun than throwing thousands a year on a cossie lol
