Nice wheels Paul, are they new? The paint on these always comes up nicely when polished. Makes the paint on the scoob look rubbish.

I bought them on Ebay, they were fooked and looked like this:-



I got them refurbed in a place in Crawley for £265 for all 4, including getting the buckles out on 2 of them. They are original R32 wheels, OZ Arristos, 7.5x18".

They now look like this:-





They did a fantastic job, really pleased.

Very nice, Really liking my Audi TDI130 PD quattro as the moment as well. Packs a punch and puts the power down and returns 50mpg.

Paul, If you haven't already - Note I can do a stage 1 remap on the audi 130TDI taking it to circa 175bhp and shed loads of torque.

Can also do a Stage 1 maps on the Vaux Z20let 2.0 turbo lumps, & the VW/Audi Group Petrol BAM engine with 225bhp.

Can you do any chipping on a Vauxhall Zafira CDTi 150, I have seen plug in chips that can take it up to 200 bhp but looking to see options

No Sorry, can only map TDI130, Z20let 2.0 turbo, and Audi S3 or Audi TT with the BAM engine. But the list is growing as I keep changing cars
