I have a theory that if the OEM wheels start to corrode, as they do, then I can just replace all of mine if they were to corrode for the price of one and a half OEM wheels....

...Or rubthem down and re-spray them. Bout £30 for a self done re-furb.

With 17"s maybe, but not with the polished face on the 18"s.

Here, here. They are the dogs.

Ed30's may have the traditional (dated :shocked:) spoked wheels but Monza's are total class :smug:

Rather have the Pescara's myself, Monza II's have too many refurb issues and don't look as sporty as the Pescara's IMO :smug:

The last two Anni editions also had spoked wheels too.......... The mkII (campaign models??? someone set me right .....Helio blue, Oak green etc) had spoked alloys as well.

If they are replicas they probably wont be polished.

Agreed - part of the heritage from the MK I era with the red grille surround, checked cloth seats and golf ball gear lever. Just prefer the more modern looking Monza's myself :rolleyes:

Mine, and almost all 18" Monza reps are polished.

monza II's any day of the week for me, ed30's are nice but cannot match the style and drive by look of them.scuffing any alloy is a real bummer in any form so shouldnt be considered a negative when choosing.Shame the ed30 doesnt come as an option with them.
