    Exclamation Wheely Bad Amaltheas.......

    I was chatting to MRP betting my wheels are worse than his are. I bet nobody else of VPC has Alloy wheels as bad as mine.

    By the way, these pictures were taken today, after I'd cleaned them........!













    Now I think you will agree, they're pretty knackered! Oh yes, I know the centre cap is missing off the one, I don't know where it went....
