So FHO has to be greedy and have 3 sets hahaha..
Never mind Phil, thought it would was long shot lol..  BTW did you find that it gets very warm inside!! Thinking about popping a pair of vent on the side to let some of the heat out. Since the exhaust system is totally enclosed under the bonnet the heat finds it way thru to the cockpit area :) :)

But make sure it is closable, you'll be glad of a little heat in the winter. ;)

Had a look on Ebay, but used wheels for Ford seem to be limited. Also wheels are a bit of a 'taste' thing really. I have always liked the ' minilight' style, others don't. Are you happy with standard Ford design, Mondeo, focus ect?

Loads on EBay but none with the et15.. Unless I go for new Pro-race 2 wheels. Don't really want standard Ford design wheels.. Some thing a little different :) I love the minilite style wheels. Think they work on almost every thing..

I blame the previous owner Steve, he sold them to me!! lol! As for the car heat, nice in the Winter though!! Make the vents open and closable then you can be cool in Summer and snug in Winter maybe!??

Think I know why!! Upon closer inspection there seems to be no real bulkhead.. A sheet of alloy is acting as one but!!! Its about 2 inches short so one has a massive gap the width of the car. This is where the heat is coming in.. Nice like about the vents tho.. Never thought of that.. :)
