I went back to my local motorbike shop, MOTT Motorcycles in basingstoke, to try a few more helemts on for size/comfort.

Very helpful and patient sales guy let me try different helmets several times and had some good advice on fit and comfort.

I now have a shiney new helmet

A Takachi T37, like this for a very reasonable £49

I have a very similar looking one. only in yellow, silver, black and white.

Cant rememeber what model it is but all vents look identical. Think its a TK110x or someting.

Very comfortable and very cheap. Not sure if i'd use it on a bike but more than enough for Seven driving.

I just missed one exactly like that on fleabay a few days ago. It went for £7.50 with a carrying bag.
