Trev-the-Rev Posted October 12, 2006 Posted October 12, 2006 I always wanted a silver or a black GT until I saw a GM in the flesh!! Also, (I'll probably get savaged for this) but I honestly prefer the standard pre '06 alloys over the Rays. The just seem more.....chunky...solid!! Each to their own I suppose They are also much heavier - around 2 kilos per wheel Quote

Just arranging the money and insurance and then i have to get the cover letter off to them to tax it, they need to service it, then i can hopefully pick it up on Saturday week. Quote
