My 'bird is P reg ('96) but had only done 1000 miles when I bought it aged 5 and has yet to hit 10k at age 13... Yes, I'm ashamed to admit it only clocks up 1000 miles or so per year if lucky.
Trouble is it sits under a breathable cover when not in use and while everything else is ok, the wheels look knackered and deserve a new year treat.
I've seen painted wheels and polished rims and am keen to explore my options (short of buying completely new wheels). I'm particularly keen to hear from anyone who has had their wheels done and what they think of them in terms of looks and ease of maintenance subsequently... and particularly keen to see any pics of your pride and joy if you've had your wheels done.
I've considered a straight black refurb, and gold wheels, but I guess by default I'm heading towards polished rims... but am open-minded about other suggestions for my black 'bird and keen to learn what works and doesn't.
Inspire me!
