But I couldn't resist this......



Old man parked up beside me today, must have been 70+ in an Astra, looked down and noticed he'd cabled tied his alloys.

Not just one but all four, does he think he's still got wheel trims on

A lot of new Fords have them too, they are steel wheels underneath with a huge trim to look like an alloy. Pretty sure Willay has some of the steels on his Astra, if not, they look very similar to his when the outer trim isnt on.

They are like a five spoke steelie underneath. So the spokes are covered by the trims, look pretty realistic. I was fooled at first
