Advice please - locking fuel cap

[vergal]

Hello everyone,
I'd appreciate some advice please on this Wilmot Breeden locking fuel cap I've acquired.
Can you please advise whether it looks like the 'breathable' type?
I believe that it will fit my Morris Traveller (I've offered it up approximately) but I would like to know more about the adapter which has the screws.... does it fit onto my existing fuel neck and do I very gently roll back the rubber sleeve so that when I roll it back it covers the screws?
Don't want to do anything radical just in case....
Many thanks

The adapter plate should fit simply on the neck with no modification. The screw, being accessible only when the cap is off, stops the collar being removed. There are plenty of caps that fit the Minor, so if the one that you have got requires modifications, then it's the wrong cap, however nice it looks.

Ah, many thanks.
As you can see, it looks like the screws are very visible when the cap is in place so, even though it fits my car clearly it must be for a somewhat more recessed filler neck.
Many thanks again.

I've got one exactly the same on my Van - and yes, you can see the screw heads but you can't get a screw-driver on them so in 18 years no-one has nicked my petrol!
(That's trusting fate, isn't it)!
Even if it DOES go down to a pound a litre thats still worth some protection!
And while we are at it, if you have not got some form of anti-theft devices on the car - DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!!

Yes, got disk lock and immobiliser etc. - sure I'm paranoid
