    I'll dig some out. It's Jody Bate's , the chap who organised the stand my Sci (not on BBS or Porsche) and Paul_R when-Polo-78's '78 Polo were on at BVF. I think there's probably some pics on the Worcester region site.

    Sparco Cromadora now there's a wheel! I've got a set in 13" tucked away in my garage they not only look excellent but they are unbelievably strong, a fine choice 1990.

    No idea who Jimmy Begg is, so no idea if he had RSL's or not :)

    Going to be changing mine soon anyway, fed up cleaning around the rim bolts ;)

    Rags,

    you is on da ball son....been checking out the westside site huh? ;)

    Yeah, I had them RSL's in 2000-2001, 7.5x15 and 8x15, did like them a lot, but had to get rid of them, for some BBSRs001's, then sold them to some lad with a red corrado up north.
    Man I need to get that MK1 on the road next year!...

    BBS Split rimmed RM`s in 8x15 are THE wheel ! True classics that will never die like all the others ! Although they are a total cnut to clean !

    BBS are a great way of making money.... buy them cheap in other countries and people over here still pay good money for them!!! :lol:

    Hubcaps are the way forward... cheap and u dont have to worry if u lose one or it gets damaged!! :lol:
