Like mine those shiny wheels will go a murky rusty colour after about a year if they've had a dealership blow over! I'm sure you're right about the wheels. I was thinking those wheels have had Poundland silver sprayed over them, probably no prep at all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There wasn't much left on the clutch and it smelt like a nursing home. After using it for a couple of tip runs, I ended up selling it to a mate who was skint and desperate for wheels. When the MOT ran out, he sold it to Philip Schofield, who offered a fraction over scrap value for it. Surprised it's still going TBH! Ah that's funny! Wonder how it ended up with another dealer, surely it would have gone through the WBAC/BCA merry-go-round monopoly and by the time a dealer pays auction fees there's no meat on the bone 🤷♂️ Genuine one lady owner from new?

As far as I know the America was only sold in um, America (plus possibly Canada). I suspect that one has found its way to Japan at a later date. wuvvum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
