Ouch...! I scuffed a wheel on my 991, and took it to be refurbed. I was advised that they could not guarantee the paint finish on the wheel would match the original, thus at £80 a wheel, I just had the two on the same side done.... I am Scottish after all... (-: On arrival back home with the two freshly painted wheels, I stood them alongside the other wheels and could not detect any difference in colour.... I guess business is business after all, and more profit in painting four.... or perhaps only one.... improves profit margins... Hmm..? Very handy to have spare wheels for such a special Morgan....

I bet you heard that impact.
I had the same with the Mercedes a few months back and ended up with four replacement alloys as they found two more were also badly buckled. It was cheaper to buy four fully forged after market wheels than three cast MB alloys. I did however go for all the same colour!
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

I bet you heard that impact. Well not really. I noticed it only when I was washing the car. It was cheaper to buy four fully forged after market wheels than three cast MB alloys. That is not the Morgan case

 LOL.  With the aero it's much easier than you think with to have the amazing opportunity of a unexpected oil change.

She is grown up now. She is discovering the pleasures of a roll in the hay (for now with fresh grass  )
