Very quick trial fit of the Mirafiori steels today.... Kinda hard to tell how they'll sit with tyres and after much lowering though. And even harder to work out how much banding will be needed! But the centre bore was identical, and I'm liking the style lots, so all good. ;D

The prototype one by Rover looks passable, but that DIY job looks disturbing!

Not quite the same, but Malta is rammed with the likes of Mk1 Escorts and Itals running TD conversions!

how wide are they? they look really wide lol They're really not though! A good offset of ET26 gives them some dish, but they're actually only 14x5.5J! I'll be test fitting them and then most likely seeing about spacing or banding...... Yes, most likely banding ;D

Fiat 131 Mirafiori steels! !?! Always loved a 131, so with them being up for sale at a not bad price and the same PCD I thought why not?! Proper 70s style with a decent offset, a bit of dish and looking highly tempting for some banding too.... Think I might go all silver rather than the usual style with black sections, but undecided on that one still.

£70 for a Mk4 Escort 1.3 Popular back in about 2002. Looked pretty good and didn't take much for an MOT either.

Looks like I've just sourced a suitably cool set of wheels for this! Can't wait to try them.... Goanna be quite unique. Better fit the alternator as well come to think of it, lol

yep, you can see them when you are driving, quite cool, obviously informs you when your lights are on, don't quite understand the logic of that, unless they were put there to inform you if your bulbs are blown Back in the days of weedy batteries and dodgy charging systems I suspect it was also to stop you getting out and leaving them switched on. I quite like the petrol cap hanger on my Volvo. That's cool, and now I realise what the odd shape on the cap is for on mine! I always just slot it in under the pump's handle for 'auto-filling' though. Perfect size on the Volvo caps!

Late 80s dealer option wheels. A mate had them on his Escort Combi, said he'd never seen another set for sale either. Too rare to put a price on I'd say..... worth whatever someone will pay really.

I'm beginning to like it purely because of the worldwide outrage and indignation it seems to be able to cause....

So I've essentially just spent 45 minutes saving my self £3.36, On the other hand, would you not if given the choice happily pay £3.36 to have the choice to do whatever you wanted with that 45 minutes of your life? Just playing devil's advocate?

I always believed that any variation of white to yellow to amber was ok for a headlight or sidelight?
Amber sidelight and running light bulbs, and often plus yellow headlight and/or foglight bulbs have always been a little fave mod of mine. Had a few cops ask about them, but were too puzzled to actually do anything about them!
