And then they wonder why I have never had an LTI mechano kit since my first cab in 1983!!

FORD = engine, 2.4 duratorq TDDi, MT75 gearbox, Galaxy mk1 mirrors and interior clock, transit propshaft, gearbox to propshaft donut coupling same as ford cortina/granada.

NISSAN = indicator/wiper stalks, door open tell tale switches, power steering assy (not 100% on this)

LDV = dash/display (not 100% on this), front belt assy (not 100% sure on this)

JAGUAR = top and bottom wishbone bushes same as XJS model

LANDROVER = front pads/discs range rover/landrover, rear drums/shoes old landrover (not 100% on this as some people say it is same as nissan urvan)

Which proves the point, . . . . it's a Mechano Kit not a Taxi!!!

dont joke about or disrespect meccano, it was a launching point for so many with an interest in engineering, same with airfix kits, basic learning how to assemble and/or design things, and the very reason we will soon not have the people who know how to do it.....

i used to alternate between meccano and electronic kits, now they (the young) are PS3, Xbox or Ipods......
