Most of what I put up on here is pretty tongue in cheek Craig. I've spent too many years doing forums, vw shows, track days etc and come across too many car people that take it all far too seriously so I tend to keep it a bit lighthearted.
I actually quite like the Austins but wish they had more like a Scirocco offset so they filled the arches.
When I had my tyre blow out on Tuesday I put an Austin back on the car while I got my (aftermarket) wheel and tyre sorted.
Against the White car I thought the Austin looked pretty good actually and briefly thought about rushing in to the garage to find a 10mm spacer to see how it looked with a view to running the Austins with spacers for a while.
But then I realised my trolley Jack wheels were sinking into the Tarmac on my drive so just bolted the wheel up quick and lowered the Jack asap!
