most expensive nuts in the world?

[Pantelis Giamarellos]

James Hi,

That reminds me of an advert Land Rover North America was running when they
re-introduced their cars in the States back in the early 80's I think.

there was a photo of Jeep wheelnuts next to one of LR wheelnuts (which are
really bigger)
and the text below stated

"Our nuts are bigger than theirs"

Take care
PAntelis
