Nice looking bike.
Some more frame dimensions (top tube, etc) would be helpful, of the exact dimensions that are given in the listing photos, the seat tube is the only actual frame measurement as the others aren't fixed. Unfortunately the Nomad Mk1 brochure link in the "Thorn Model Brochure *Historical Archive*" no longer works.

I'd guess its a 565 M/L or was it 560M/L ? -Just my size :)

Its a 67 according to the Vendor. LA80202 frame number. My Mk1 is a 67 with a frame number of LA130202.

Are you sure it's a 67? Going by the given seat tube C to C measurement of 53cm in the Ebay listing, it would seem closer to the 69 which has a seat tube measurement of 525mm C to C according to your size chart.
