Karcraft still sells what I think is the original UK hydro fluid. It smells like there's some alcohol in it. They have it in 4L and 20L cans.

I always get worried when the word "original" is used. :lol:

Is it original Unipart one (green), or is it the original Rover one (red), or it it the other concentrated Rover one (clear) that you just need to add water?

BMC Australia had at least three different hydro fluids before Leyland took over in 68.
