Thanks for this; although I'm in the American colonies, I once had a Saab
V-4 which was equipped with a Lucas alternator. *Which failed, teaching me
that the Lucas end of the mounting bracket had "English" hardware, whereas
the German engine end was metric.

We now return you to your gardens already in progress. *Mine has a foot
(30cm) of snow on it.

You should worry, my 1986 Landrover uses both Metric and Imperial sizes
of bolts etc, and considering it's age there is no way of knowing which
is which. I find a grinder to be a good nut removal tool.

Tyre sizes are metric, wheel sizes are in inches

I think one of the best was a shower I looked at, it was Metric input
