I did say "<!--EZCODE UNDERLINE START--><span style="text-decoration:underline"><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>I</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></span><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE END--> wouldn't pay more than £20" If you think about it, they're always coming up on ebay, they only fit a Dolly or a few other Triumphs (& maybe a couple of other cars) so there's a limited market out there. If someone wants to pay £40+ for them then let them have them. Just stick to your £20-£25 limit. You'll outbid me for one.<br>

I got a set of 4 for £16. They come up all the time - can't see the point in paying over the odds. Even a crappy set will shine up a treat with a few hours work.

I've even given them away before to stop them cluttering up my garage. Every time I buy a car it seems to come with a spare set! If 22000 Sprints were built and there are now 500 registered that's 44 sets per car. Of course there are lots of smaller engined cars with them fitted and the odd Spit, but I think you can see that there is no shortage. And they hardly fit anything else. Sprint wheels on an MGF anyone? Maestro? Montego?<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :x --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... s/sick.gif ALT=":x"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> Didn't think so!<br>
