well i was bidding on some genuine's that were on e bay but they went for a grand, think he was bidding them up, cant see anyone paying a grand for secondhand though you never no ?
was thinking the replica route but not sure i want 17's trouble is the purchase of the car was ment to be purely for fishing but as so happens i ended up buying a nicer example than was ment to, ah well lol but dont worry it wont be coverd in fish slime it will be a pamperd fishing car lol
did see those replica bbs alloys in the parts section dont look to bad ........ not sure what to do tbh

Alpina's can make very strong money espcally if they are a staggered set.fishingtourer wrote:well i was bidding on some genuine's that were on e bay but they went for a grand, think he was bidding them up, cant see anyone paying a grand for secondhand though you never no ?

Are the staggered ones rarer then?
I wouldn't go for the Reps, hold out for the real deal. There was someone on here selling a mint set with tyres for £650. I think they were genuine. Have a look through the For Sale section, they might still be available.

i sold a genuine set of ebay for 200 quid - admittedly they were square and in need of a refurb but then that sale netted me 75% of the cost I paid for the car they came on so not too bad.

yesh i have spotted alloy wheels direct though i might have sprung a deal with the guy i mentioned earlier so watch this space. i do really want the genuines, did see the ones in the parts section but think they are gone. wish me luck
