Im sure steve threatened to dig his rings out of the shed for me on one of my really early posts.................................
Maybe his sheds a long long long long way from the house?

I hope he hasnt gotten lost. :lol:

Sounds Good though Tom. Bit of cheap shiny shiny. :D
I even passed up on a set on ebay a while ago because id just got my alloys. :(
I've found a set even if the pic isn't particularly flattering:

Frits is on V3M every now and then, English isn't a problem ...

Cheers Tom, they dont look too bad really. Would look a bit better if the wheel was a bit brighter/tidier.
Oh dear. I smell a 'one wheel at a time' amateur refurb coming on!

Off to PM fritz.
Thanks a lot Tom.
Youre as ever, the man with the plan.

Wow!
I nearly said 'I WANT IT!'

But thats nearly what I paid for my car. Serious money for a part. even if it is a beautiful part.

I think whoever paid that for a louvre, is a very, very commited volvo nerd. Where i am still in training.

And thanks for the comments my friend.

For the first time since you asked me last steve, yes.
And remember man, in all facets of life, lower is better.

And now, in unrelated news, how much would you like for them dude? :D

Well, i got it :lol:

I didn't exactly pay 200 for it, that was the asking price. I managed to reduce quite a bit of that price. Luckily, because i don't have a mk1/2.... (as you can see in my topic...)

I saw someone was prepared to pay 200 Euros for it, at least there was a Marktplaats bid which was that high ...

Well, i don't think i will ever lose money on this item. If i should decide to sell it, i could at least find someone that wants it for the same price.

Does anyone know what happened to that 360 GLS in the end? I remember it having obvious signs of HG failure but since then it hasn't been relisted
