BBS RAs 15" for £137 - Good!?
« on: 19 April 2010, 16:09 »
So i decided that i wanted some RA's for my MK1 for now... I had some refurbed ones on my previous white mk1 in Gun Metal grey metallic and they looked mint.  just won a set of four in good (not perfect) condition on the bay for £137... good price?... i thought so... bit of a drive to fetch them though!... hope they're not sh*t when i pick them up!  :smiley:

I sold a set with tyres for £50 a few years ago.  I can't be bothered trying to get top dollar.  I'd rather sell stuff at a bargain price and not get mucked about.

when I sold my mk2 I gave the guy that bought it everything else that was VW related or at least usable...spare parcel shelf, a stealth shelf, external trim, old stereos, rear and indicator lenses, front grills etc etc.  My garages are looking nice and clear and ready to be painted in the summer  :smiley:

Unless you want a full size air hockey table?

I know what your saying but sadly some people need some cash back to purchase the replacement.

Can't wait to get to work on them... They're standard at the moment but intend to do the same as below as I think they will suit my car very much this way...
