That's a wonderful photo, you can practically hear Damon shouting "DAAAAAAD".
Love it.

Just fitted a 123 distributor to my Giulietta so took it out for a brief test run ...

Yes, still got it James although it's taken a 'back seat' more recently as it had developed an annoying intermittent engine fault which I hadn't been able to eradicate.
On initial testing it seems as though the 123 distributor might have solved the problem - just need to experiment with different advance curves to find out which one suits my engine spec best ...

That’s the best picture I’ve seen over the past 24 hours bar none. Mind if I borrow it?

It's a pic that's been doing the rounds on Facebook. No idea where it originated.
(The 'Queen' is a look-alike, as I'm sure you're aware).
