Title: Wheel?
Post by Penguin on Jul 14^th, 2006, 8:40pm

Hi all

Wondering if anyone knew where one might get a new wheel from? (12 Spoke Soft Effect)

I ran over some debris on the M20 on my way to France a couple of weeks ago that was powerful enough to burst the tyre and and punch a hole in the wheel. Of course the latter wasn't spotted until I got to France which meant I was stuck at 50mph throughout the holiday, but Ford on Boulonge told me that Ford no longer make them. Is this so?

Cheers

Penguin

Thanks - although I have now via the wonders of eBay found one in Essex.

Still that was a chance in a million so it's good to know that alternative help is available.

Cheers

That's actually the chap who I bought mine from in the end, he has a veritable forest of dead scorps and all manner of parts. (And I didn't mind that he sold the centre cap seperately because I didn't break that).

Cheers
