Was just thinking… you could sell the originals to get a bit of cash back towards refurbishment.

To get that mpg from a petrol is awesome. You were up my neck of the woods!
Ah was I. I went to Partington for them.

I have a really good wheel refurbishment place near me that I've used before so will be taking them there. It'll be £270 for all 4 and will be getting them done in some form of high power/bright silver.

The wheels aren't too bad, but not great either. Bad paint, few marks on them. I had every intention on getting them refurbed with new tyres before they go on the car.

The OE Volvo ones that are on at the moment are just 17 inch. Don't want to sell them, just in case you know and I might even throw some winter tyres on them????

Yeah, I'm happy with that MPG, like I said though, I was only cruising at 65mph there and back.

There's a Volvo meet in York on 26th May if you're up for a drive out?
