Bit of an update just waiting on the bolt for the speedo cable. It would seem its never had a bolt in there since the box was fitted by TSR by the state of the support and hole.

I'm need of some wheel advice. Its currently sat on some 3 spoke Borbet Procast. I've never heard of them and they are In
 need of a referb so not keen on keeping them.

On the mk2 what looks better16s or 15s?

Either are good, personaly for the money you cant beat a good old set of BBS RA's or a set of G60 steelies!

Both bore me a little. Might go down the BBS RS route, but it's been over done to hell. Not one to follow the crowd.

Thoughts on these on the MK2, 16s only not seen them on a mk2 yet.

I think they would work, very different choice.

I keep swaying between these and the RS's ahhhhh.

The current ones are strange, havent seen them before. Borbet ProCast 3 spokes....

You are such an indecisive woman it's unreal. Don't you ever moan at me again about me changing my mind. :lipsrsealed:
