Ian - when are you heading down this way? Do you have a preference for Novas or Omegas? Generic pics are on the first page. There are more Omegas than Novas (by a long way), so a better chance of getting a good set of Omegas. I might bring the best set of each I can find back with me next time I visit my friend who is storing them. I'll get you detailed pics of the best set I find. Again, knowing roughly what timescale I'm working to would help me plan the visit to the wheel store!

Camillus - I'll reply to your PM ASAP - apologies again.

cheers

James
James - visit down your way was in June (as said), so missed the boat. I would need a good photo of the specific set you were selling to me - so that I could see exactly what I was buying before I made the diversion into the flatlands to pick them up............

Hi Ian,

You did say end of June - many apologies - I missed that. Sorry the stars didn't align this time. And it goes without saying that I would get you quality pictures of the actual wheels prior to making a commitment to detour...sadly I just didn't get as far as laying my hands on a set in time, having overlooked your deadline.

If you're still interested, I will probably be up that way on business sooner or later. If you're still in the market for them, I'll bring a good set of both types up with me next time I'm in that part of the world, and we'll take it from there.

Jim - we have four Adharas, and I'm concerned about splitting the set. Having said that, they haven't sold. I'll have a think about it and drop you a line.

cheers

James

Bump!

A friend has taken the Adharas, and another has taken all of the Omegas and Novas, but we found an eigth Rigel, so that leaves us with the following:

Two sets of Rigels - £60 per set

cheers

James

I sold the lot (Novas and Omegas) to a friend a while back. I will find out if he would be interested in moving any of them on, though!

cheers

James
