Microcar Virgo

[Station]

Anyone have any info on these?

 

 

Mainly, what PCD the wheels are. They had one in the scrappy and the wheels are off and they're cheap. They look like 3.3/4 or 4" PCD. Could do with some winter tyres for winter, and they were really cheap.

Those wheels might not be terribly strong for a normal car.

They're going on a whizzkid.

They're going on a whizzkid.

Fair enough but even then those Microcars weigh about 370kg and a whizzkid is more like 650kg. all the components of those things are built to be just man enough to do the job in order to keep the weight very low so I'd be careful about using them. What stud pattern is the Sc100?

They're classic Japanese 4x114.3. I'm not having a lot of luck finding stuff that's under 13".

i've seen a million pikeys in one of those microcars over here you'll be surprised what weight they carry

What scrappy are you using Station ?I find the one on the corner - by Corporation Road .. is a robbing tw*t

Hehe, I've got some 12" white 8 spokes in that fitment

Have you got any pics or details!I bought a single door handle 'puller' (the metal wire link from the door handle to the lock) for £15 from the one on the corner, I was too shocked to vomit/throw them back in his face. Lord knows why but I paid for it. It's in Neptune, which is just as bad, the miserable funkers.

I'll have to try get a job in one of them, as dealing with neptunes is a miserable experience, and the newly owned corner one is stupidly expensive.That way if i get a crap job there, i can throw you the stuff you need , without dealing with the miserable man, or stead-head-higly priced prick

[Station]

Is it LJ's the one on the corner?

[Minimad5]

Not too sure mate, it was owned by "Dicko" or what ever his name was(Had a flash merc with a private reg) . But then he sold up, and now some guy on steads seems to own the place.And he has no idea of pricing....Me - "How much for these boot struts ?"Stead-Head- "Give us £30 for the pair"Me - "Fuck ! ... Give you £5 'cuz there fooked anyway"He then stormed into his office, and a little guy came out, then told me he would take a fiver for one.... some people But yeah RatDat has some wheels that may fit, if not then good luck with the search

They're lust like Wellers. they were fitted to my Sunny pickup when I got it (they were actually the original wheels)...

 

 

What size rims are you after.. 13" or less or is 13 too big?

Lol! I know Les Jones quite well!Anyway, there is one of these abandoned in a driveway up Claremount road in Wallasey. At least I think it's one of those!
