£20 quid Ash, you must have mugged him  :o!
I bought a s/h set of Davida gauges last year on ebay for £50, they work fine, very smooth and easy to use.
I used to have a set of Morgans, the ones with the metal rods instead of mercury.  The rods would 'stick' in the tubes and I'd have to tap them to obtain a correct reading whenever I made an adjustment.

Funnily enough I went to Newark autojumble the same month and there was a set there too ...  identical.. I picked them up just to look and the woman said £30 but when I walked away she said 25 but obviously I already had my car-boot set. You didn't say if they are any good or not though?

I use Davida's. they were bought new some 20 years ago, for I think just under £100 and have been in use ever since.

No complaints at all, well made and do a good enough job for my purposes.

Laverda Dave:
Davida are excellent gauges Ash, no problems at all and very well made 👍
