Pure greed. I doubt anyone is daft enough to pay that!

BMC seems to have twigged - but no one else has!

I very much doubt he is trying to sell the leads at that price. He has put them up to get peoples attention, and post his WANTED ad on every forum out there! Clever idea really - it seems to have worked :lol:

I have seen genuine 1959 Champion Mini Plug caps sell for over £200 a set. Bit like the Mini glass screen washer bottles that fetch over £400 they were only fitted for a very short time.
