But they are rare!

they must be chrome plated gold for that price

From Amazon Cars , if I remember rightly , they are £50 each . Having said that the ones at Amazon cars are not chrome plated gold .

I had just logged in to start a thread with exactly the same title. Imagine how I laughed to see someone already had! What a chancer! I suppose one might admire the cheek especially if someone handed over their hard earned for them. On the other hand- that would do none of us any good!

Are those the same ones though? The only Amazon (as opposed to generic classic car) mirrors that I've seen for sale new, are the later type door mirrors, rather than the earlier 123GT and the almost identical accessory mirrors.

Indeed, these are the 123GT wing mirrors. They haven't been available in years and they're not reproduced. A set on Canadian Ebay made over £1000 last year.

And there is a 123GT steering wheel on there currently at £660 with about 14 bids so far, still some money around somewhere then...

The £700 is a starting bid and will not even buy them. The Reserve is higher than that. Maybe at £999.....

Does this mean you have been researching by bidding?
Hope you don't get them by mistake!
