It would appear to be M14. Trouble is that there are 3 types of M14 threads.
M14 x 2.00 thread pitch (ISO) Metric Coarse
M14 x 1.50 thread pitch (ISO) Metric Fine
M14 x 1.25 thread pitch (ISO) Metric Special Pitch

My guts would tell me that it is probably the M14 x 1.50 but I'm not 100% sure. I will try and measure one of mine if I get a chance tonight.

Thanks The only reason I know is last Monday I measured the upper control arm bushes to buy and when they arrived on Tuesday I put them along the existing bushes to make sure they are the same and had a WTF moment

I can confirm that it is a M14 x 1.50 thread pitch flanged nut (19mm spanner).

Did your car get stolen and returned minus this nut or did somebody just steal the nut?

Thanks Just the nut and cup washer There is fresh spanner marks on the ones on passenger side where they tried to remove them I find this very bizarre Cheers

Bizarre is the case of the falcon that came back to a car yard after a test drive without the starter Salesman didn't realise until he went to shift the car back onto the yard a couple of hours later
