I'm not sure, but don't think so.

The dealer I have mine serviced at always sends me an inspection video and the wheels are always on.

Ah, Andy beat me to it.

I too thought it was a good honest review. He didn't mention the handling, which for me was the biggest eye opener when I bought mine. I've no idea where the limits are and I'd definitely need a track day to find out. Another wake up moment was autobahn travel, - you can tell where the car was devel...

Hi Rob,

All looking good!

I'm also in need of some new wheels, - where did you get yours from?

Thanks for the replies chaps, I ended up calling DL with my Haggling Hat on and managed to get a quote similar to last year's premium. Go Compare definitely threw up some 'slightly' cheaper ones, but I decided to stick with DL in the end. I think the adjusted quote just about fell into the 'renewal ...

My fingers are crossed for you Rob!

If you're going for an MOT today, good luck.

Evening all, My insurance is coming up for renewal soon, I've been with Direct Line for a few years but it's been creeping up over the last few years and that creep seems to be accelerating. Their renewal quote is around the £900 mark, two years ago it was less than £500. I suspect if I call DL and ...

Hi Mano,

Have a look at the link below, I think it's covered there:

I used simplycarmats Stu, they're pretty good, look a lot like the originals and seem to be wearing well.
Do not use carmats4u...

Did you get any decent nibbles Lopsey?

Job done. OE front discs and pads, supplied and fitted for just under £2k incl VAT. The labour charge was minimal thanks to my excellent local indy and the parts were delivered next day. Interestingly, he said his experience with Brembo, Zimmerman etc wasn't good, with too many returns and he'd alwa...

That's, as you say Phillippe, interesting. I'm afraid I can't offer any advice about how good they might be, but Brembo have been around a while and aren't exactly new to the game. Let us know what you decide on and how you get on. Personally I'd be interested as I've just started to feel a slight b...

Oh well...

Seems like my wheels have already been refurbed and can't be done again. They don't look too bad tbh, so I'm not exactly distraught about keeping them on, but a refurb would have looked nice.

Looks like I'll also be keeping an eye on e-bay. Let me know how you get on Lopsey!

I've also been thinking about this, for pretty much the same reasons as Stu.

The rear view mirror has power, I'm assuming it's not possible to connect to this and avoid having to route cables?

They look good value Andy, I like it. My v-spokes go in for a refurb today, £105/wheel, hopefully they should be back to being as good as new. Hopefully... Re finding new ones, I'm afraid I can't be much help. I think e-bay is probably your friend here, someone somewhere might buy up old stock from ...

I'll admit I don't carry much apart from the basics, so space or a container isn't really an issue. I've a classic for (mostly) weekend use, and in that I've got a storage container, bound with gaffer tape, for things like a bottle jack, spare hoses, sealants, tool roll, tape, ziplocks etc. I think ...
