greido Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 (edited) As my Zed is being traded in this week I have no use for these original Alloys, I had bought them with the intention of using them for track days but never got around to it. 3 out of the 4 are in really good condition but one had been kerbed and could do with a Refurb, the pictures of the single wheel is of the kerbed wheel, hopefully you can make out the kerbing on it. I believe these usually sell for around £15o so if you I'll accept offers around this, I'd prefer pick up in Edinburgh but if you would prefer I could probably organise a courier for £27.50: http://www.paisleyfr...eel-courier.php Pics here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/twhewzwjup45dla/8YOykeX_dt Edited November 18, 2012 by greido Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianphampton Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Greido - that's dreadful news? What are you trading it in for - a new 370? Your other set of 17" JDM wheels is now running on my roadster with Snow SV-2's on them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greido Posted November 28, 2011 Author Share Posted November 28, 2011 Hey Ian, I'm glad to hear that you're making good use of the JDM wheels! I've went for something completely different, I've bought a new Elise, I should probably get it next Tuesday, really looking forward to it though I'm sure I'll miss the Zed. I made myself quite unpopular at home with this move, my girlfriend has hardly spoken to me in the last week and just keeps telling me she prefers the Zed and I'd have been better off buying a new conservatory!

Mack Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Hello greido, Im intrested. If there any damage to the inside of the rim or is it purely cosmetic kurbing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianphampton Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Gordon Good Luck with the Lotus! My brother had an Esprit turbo many years ago and absolutely loved it, with 2 notable exceptions: 1) The servicing costs can be pretty high - especially if you use a main dealer. There are lots of comments on here about dealer servicing - Nissan dealers pale to nought compared to Lotus dealers and 2) It nearly killed him. Mind you, that was mostly his fault - he can't remember the accident but at the end of it the telegraph pole was cut off about 3 ft from the ground and the car was in very small pieces. He thinks he was driving "pretty vigorously" but can't really remember! Anyway, after 2) when he got the insurance money, he didn't buy another one, mainly because of 1) - but he says he still misses it occasionally. It was such a drivers car, responsive, and an absolute joy. Good Luck, anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greido Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 Thanks Ian, I'll look out for those servicing costs, apparantly they have a fixed price servicing policy now so hopefully I won't be too badly stung! - There a very reputable Lotus specialist in Edinburgh so I've got a few choices. I'll also keep an eye out for telegraph poles and try to avoid them too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
