Found a knob in garage

Found an old Sparco gear knob in garage I’ve had for years. It come of an Astra gsi I once had. Fits perfectly and gives a nice short throw. What do you think? A bit boy racer or passable.

That looks really short. Probably the smallest knob on the forum.

Like it - might be short but looks like its got good girth

It feels good in the hand. Only needs a quick flick of the wrist.

Tbh I think it looks like it belongs in an Astra GTI, where most knobs are.....

Most of the editorial team are still sat in McDonalds car park waiting for it to raise phoenix like from the ashes.
