Filled up and left the damn Chimaera filler cap on the petrol pump. Went back and some git had nicked it.

Don't really want to spend £50 on a Leven one at the moment so has anyone got a normal one spare they could sell to me? Or let me know where I could buy one from?

Cheers in advance

Yours, (most shamefacedly) Ace-T paperbag

Easily done - I did it once and remembered as I was driving out! Did you ask in the shop/kiosk if anyone had handed it in? Can't really see anyone nicking it - doubt it'd fit much else.

Thank you very much to all you lovely people for your kind offers. As none of you are particularly close may I send one of you a stamped addressed jiffy envelope for you to pop it in the post for me? I completely understand if you would not want some random internet stranger to know your address so don't worry if this is not something you would like to do.

Thanks again.

Tracy smile

Edited to add: The Racing Green web site does not seem to work for me frown but thanks for the link smile

redface I know, I know, it really doesn't help being a woman either because it is almost expected weeping. Got a rubber one at Halfwits this afternoon.

I've got one if you still need one. It's a bit tatty off a 95 Chim based in West Midlands. If you get stuck let me know
