As a big bumper model, i'll be honest and say not as many wheels suit the style?
Small bumpers + Turbines = cool 8)

Cups (IMO) only look good on big bumpered,g-arched slammed mk2s. And Turbines only really look the part on small bumpered ones. It all depends on budget,size,lowering constraints etc etc.I had around about 12 different sets on my red mk2

Funny you should say that - I was going to swing by Evesham on the way back from picking up the TRD SC last weekend. I was all ready to call you but it had been a long day and my stomach was dictating that home+dinner was a higher priority than visits+ cuppa+banter! Should be up there sometime in the next few weeks - will give you a call and happy to bring the MR2. Dave, sorry for going OT - blame it on the Captain ;D
