16" wheels wanted for use with winter tyres

I would like to take the S&B limited edition wheels off my coupe for winter, but I need to find some cheap 16" replacements. They don't need to be in great condition, and I'm not picky about what type they are.

Cheers!

Re: Newbie - I need some advice on which model to buy please

The window drops a bit when you open the door, then raises when you close it. I have a feeling it is leaking around the front seal where the mirror housing is, so I'll check it out in the morning. I had the Nightbreakers on my previous car, and was very impressed with how much better they were than ...

Re: Newbie - I need some advice on which model to buy please

Well done on your purchase! Cracking cars, aren't they :) As for your broken speaker - I would wholeheartedly recommend buying a pair of JBL GTO938 6x9 3-way speakers; you can get them for £40 on Amazon. They work very well, are basically a straight-fit replacement for the JBL speakers in the S&B o...

Anyone live near Bath, and able to help me view a coupe pls?

Morning all, I think I have found a 406 coupe which sounds exactly what I am looking for. I don't think it will be around long at the price, but it's in Bath, and I'm in Glasgow :( I know it's a big ask, but I am hoping someone is close enough for it not to be too much hassle. Anyone care to swap be...

Re: Newbie - I need some advice on which model to buy please

I'm not worried about having a Cat D car, as long as the price reflects it's sale value. If a Cat D car only gets 2/3 of the price of a typical non cat D car, then this is overpriced at £1395 it would seem. There was no mention of the insurance status in the ad, or in 3 separate conversations with t...

Re: Newbie - I need some advice on which model to buy please

I have someone going to look at the Leeds one tomorrow. Apparently they do not have a service book, but do have the recent receipts for cambelt, aux belt, waterpump, new key, new clutch, and 4 new Continental tyres. They will service it before it is sold, and replace the back box which is blowing. S...

Not my first choice, but at this price range I can hardly be too picky ;)

Re: Newbie - I need some advice on which model to buy please

I'm not really close enough to my monitor to give them a good look over but: #1 - do they mean black as in Silver & Black limited edition? #4 & #5 seem to be the same car 1 - I need to check about the model with the dealer. If it is a 2002 2.2 petrol, could it just be an S model? It has half leathe...
