I think this needs to be a sticky as these questions are asked every second day. I might put something together, but in the meantime

Hi

Sable? I was going by the dictionary meaning and by Googling. Ok, if GMH reckons that brown is the same as silver - who am I to judge? Another of life's imponderables :D

Yella, retractable seat belts were an option on LH, not sure exactly when it was introduced, but it was an option.
