Are gold wheels on cars a bit limp ?.

Or are they now accepted as normal ?.

Looking at all the posts so far, The genral feeling is if you have gold wheels, its likely u have a gold handbag too..LOL

Like most fashion it comes and goes.

People who have gold wheels in 2003 wear burgendy stapress and Geo Gemalli jumpers.



Looks like you want a brake upgrade Chris

When I swapped my red one about a week after there was a knock at the door and a bloke standing there. He said I have come about the Subaru, I thought, on no its nicked and it the local CID and I have just sold a minter . He then said the red one not the blue one , you have sold my car [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] . Transpires he had is eye on it for ages and wanted to buy it and only lived round the corner.

Spent an hour with the guy and printed him the SIDC FAQ and he went on his way quite happy. I think he was off to the garage to drive my old car . Not seen it about so I guess he didnt buy but he also said he wouldnt be ready to buy for a few months but was gutted as he had meant to come round.

I have a list for this car of people who are interested until they find out how much it is to insure .

My Insurance is £300 I think??

Its because I am a member of the SISI Club and we get a SUBSTANTIAL discount!!

Gold Wheels?? Hmmmmmmm, sweetie, where do I start??

Very Very old hat, Very Very Tacky, Very Very Gay, and as a post above says - it tells EVERYONE that you follow the WRC heroes (as IF they would be seen DEAD driving a car with Gold Wheels at home!! ) so, you are a follower!!

If Gold Wheels were any good EVERY car would have them!!
