"I think British Leyland Metros had 10bb didn't they?"

They also had 21 valves; eight in the engine, eight in the radio (top quality superhet)and five in the tyres.
A chap at Halfords didn't appreciate the joke

My Shakespeare International closed face reel has none, sounds like a coffee grinder but it works.
