What is the lowest that you would take for them?

I would also have to shell out for a courier and £250 for a 5 wheel refurb'.

I am, Alex.

A V40 that will match my S40, internally and externally, except the engine, as I am considering an oil burner. First time for everything!

Either that or a T4 V40.

We'll see, as I am in no rush.

Need to get the Ka sorted first.

T4. You've got to at least experience one before you jump ship to the oil burners.

I drove jwl's, from Dundee before.
A yellow S40 that I was detailing.
Incredible difference in power to mine, but I would end up either banned or dead, I think.

"What is the lowest that you would take for them?"

The lowest...try your luck but let me be honest, if I'm going to sell them for bugger all, I don't really want to spend 3 hours packing them and messing about. It's just not worth it. As I said, collection is prefered.

"I would also have to shell out for a courier and £250 for a 5 wheel refurb'."

If you have £250, the cost of these and courier fees burning a hole in your pocked, I would suggest you don't buy these! You could buy a beautiful set of 17" wheels with decent tyres for that money.

If you wish to purchase them and give them a refurb, that is up to you and has no impact on the price from my end, nor do the courier fees.

They are decent enough wheels at a good price.
