Late Toldeo ABF 16V is the one you want, but be aware it's auto-adjust.

The part number is on this site somewhere - search for Toledo or something.

I think the one on mine has been (deliberately) butchered by an AA man (one who I know) at some point before it got to my car - the auto-adjust has been defeated and it has screw adjustment on the end. 

Suits me fine, but be aware the standardish clutch in mine is already quite heavy on the cable.  The hydraulic set up will be significantly lighter and an easier every day drive.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Just polish, fanny about with trim and paint centre-caps: collect abuse.

Actually do something worthwhile: get help and assistance.

It's simple equation.  :grin:
