[Lashdeep Singh]

Superb!

Who was your contact there?

I wonder if Aer Lingus will take them as checked baggage…

Marvic was expecting to have to further increase prices at that time due to raw materials cost escalation. But all in, even with a price increase the second set was cheaper than the first Marvic set I purchased in 2021 and comparable to what some sellers are asking for 40-year-old wheels in the US! Why even take the risk with used when you can get new for about the same price!

   Julian, trust me, I have been having a bloody shopping spree on Ebay
   UK.
   Did you purchase directly through Marvic?
   Thanks

   Does anyone have a set of these reproduced Grp 4 wheels?
   I would like to know what they look like on a car as I believe they are
   14" wide vs 13" for the originals.
   Thanks,
