Unfortunately, I don't have that cable anymore it appears! I hope you will be able to find one soon elsewhere.
You won't. Your car was Series-2, with electronic speedometer.

I was under the car to double-check where the sensor is located, and yes it is on the gearbox.

Is that the lower, 485mm, cable?
Do you know which you need yet, upper, or lower?

I have thought about it and what was sent was none UK car models, European models cars would be shorter than the ones for the UK, the ends are the correct ones, just to short, UK top speedometers cables need to be about 1000 mm long
I thought I said upper cable, um maybe I did not.
