Does someone have a brand new mini throttle cable in their stash , that they could measure the outer and inner cable length for me ?

I'm led to believe that there are 2 different length cables that you can get ,
I E ; standard length , and an extended length .

Reason i ask is i'm thinking about changing my cable , ( which has been in the car , 18 yrs :shock: ) and i have spotted a Teflon Lined cable that suits a go - kart .
Can't see why it wouldn't work . Cheap too !

Thanks , Colin .

I ended up with a short one which meant I had to leave off the new accelerator pedal stop and the old one for that matter. :?

I have a new one here that I got from a Mini shop a while back, the outer is 66cm long, the inner is 88cm long. It has a couple of part number stickers on it...
QTC4006
MTC309
AYA2179 (this is actually the Australian Morris 1100 part number, the Australian part number for the Mini is AYA2134)
