Manual leather gear knob...

Has anyone got a decent leather gear knob for a 1997 manual please! Did Rover fit them to any other range, 200 or 600 maybe! :)

Thanks, George.

Re: Hospitalised!

Many thanks for all the kind wishes guys. I had some good news today, a shadow that appeared during a scan on one of my kidneys and was suspected as a suspicious growth has been diagnosed as a small cyst, so a return in 12 months time for a ultrasound scan, what a relief! Yes Dave , I'm glad Swampy ...

Aside from having to read inane post about what people's guinea pigs had for breakfast, the way posts appear and are arranged prevents any sort of useful archive being created.
