As I see it, I like watches and it was either buy another watch or a nice set of rare wheels. Either way they aren't going to loose money. If I bought an expensive Omega and decided to sell it I wouldn't get the money from anyone who didn't appreciate the value of a watch.

Does that make sense to anyone except me?????

 

Dare i ask are your old wheels going up for sale ?

 

Could well be......

I've never lost money on a set of bbs's...... Took me ages to finally get the tyres fitted on my new rm's..... The tyre fitter was nervous when I turned up with them in the boxes....!!!

Its whats behind the engine, the gearbox and the subframe that needs sorting.

 

The croosmember is still as good as when I fitted it last year.

Not sure about the power steering bottle though as I expected it to be whiter, its more a green colour?

That brake reservoir got me excited enough to get one ordered… we just need to find some transparent brake fluid now so it stays looking like that..

do you mind if i ask how much the brake reservoir was? Nice fresh bottles always lift the engine bay imo, and yours is already at a superb level that mine could never even think of achieving!
