haha how true!!

Yeah ive been looking them lock sets up on ebay.

whats the situation with the fuel tank for MOT's?
does it just have to automatically lock shut or does it need a key to pass?

Not got MOT till next july but might aswell ask while on the topic

It doesnt have to automaticly lock when you shut it its just a perk of honda ownership.
If you still haven't sorted it, I have a nc23 ignition barrel and fuel cap with matching key in the garage.. PM if interested.
