this morning I found my golf 4 with an big pin inside a fw wheel.
Being member of this forum I have some personal best timings in changing wheels (to all the cars..in less than 3 minutes...) but when fixing the new one had an ugly surprise
...the 5 holes of the new wheel were different..and looking carefully I also found the audi logo on it.:squint:
I dunno if that was wrongly placed by someone else during a previous owner check (she was a very nice rich italian lady...selling the 2001 golf 4 at 40.000 km for a new Mini cooper, I've payed the car 5000 dollars, a bargain I think).
It is strange cause the tyre on that wheel is really brand new (so if a mafioso change I should found a nearly gone tyre there..)
Now have a spare audi wheel...and cant use the car until tomorrow cause today is sunday.
The convertible bmw is in garage without insurance .
The 1965 Vespa I have is in Rimini....
I have also tried to mount the BBS 17 inch wheel and slick tyre saved from Honda WTCC car but that has a 9.5 channel (maybe good for a gt40..)
Will lay down in sofa and look at Silverstone race then...:lurker:
It is always raccomended to look CAREFULLY also at such small details when u buy a car..
