Looks more like Tenec to me..... the first letter, even though its a bit worn off, still looks more like a "T" than a "J".....

Tenec is the more exclusive, better model. ;)

There is no such thing as a Fidelity 1000 which is too good to scrap.

It's a joke. On top of that it's listed as for parts , so you won't be able to open a PayPal case if it's butchered. A joke ! Probably my fault for posting a link to it and mentioning the J word :)

Theres a difference between folk winning auctions and actually stumping up the ready's, Can you imagine paying that much then when the radio turns up its just a carcus with no board inside :mrgreen:

Exactly. I thought I'd seen some crazy things back home in Spain, but Ebay.co.uk has opened my eyes to just how nuts this market can be.

It was one of these ugly things with an MGB twin cam in. No wonder he wouldn't race me in my Escort around our local 'racetrack' as even this site reported they were awful ariund corners. I hope the link appears as it's the first time I've tried to put one on here:

The reason I said that was a mate had a Marina 1.8 tc (twin carb) and I had a Mini 1275gt he reckoned his would beat mine on the country roads :lol: he didn't stand a chance :D
