Why not ebay - there's a chap on there who sells them - you can collect and pay cash if that bothers you ?

Apparently he is now out of stock of them, all very quiet on what is happening with these wheels, Rochfors will not comment on why they dont stock them now

Indeed - but there a fraction of the price and hardly any difference.

I think SWAutos had some very similar to Pegs. Not sure if he's still stocking them though.

I tried www.rtmechanics.co.uk as they sell them but have been unable to contact them?
They sell some nice stuff too,wanted to buy a carbon fibre spark plug cover and throttle body cover that they also sell.

Spot on BlackBeast, don't understand why people pay big money for replicas... I paid £600 (including delivery!!!!!!) for my 5 from 'Volvo Houston' in Texas. Didn't pay any duty or VAT either :haha:

If you do decide to go for it, make sure they improve the packaging as 3 arrived with slight chips where the rim had touched the edge of the box. Not a disaster and you can't see it- just annoying!

If they don't ask they don't get ;)

Came via UPS, I'm sure if they had come from via Royal Mail I'd have been stung!

Had a few PM's regarding contact details for Volvo Houston so I thought I'd post it here...

Just to clarify now I've dug out the receipts (cause I was wrong/ my bad! :slap: ) 18'' Pegasus were list price $257 reduced to $205.60, so FIVE cost me $1028.

Shipping was $465 via UPS.

All in that was $1493, coverted using XE.com thats £860.

I didn't pay any duty or VAT, because I guess I was lucky!

The address:

Volvo of Houston
11950 Old Katy Road
Houston
Texas 77079

(281)721-1600

If they won't ship International, with flights to New York at £250 return, you could take the Mrs shopping for the weekend, go to a dealers in NY and privately arrange to ship them home. :remybussi
