Default Volvo 264 / 265 / early 200 Sunburst Alloys x 5

I think they are called Sunburst or Corona wheels, from memory.

Anyhow, I've a set of 5 low mileage alloys wheels (see picture for reference - not the actual wheels) with great rims (inner and outer) together with a set of 4 perfect centre caps, which are rare to find, especially in such good condition and which are essential to complete the appearance of the wheel/car.

No chrome nuts I'm afraid, but new chrome nuts are available on eBay.

The wheels have been dry stored for many years but are now surplus to requirements as I seem to moving away from Volvo 200s in my old age. They are the painted and lacquered variety and the outer face will need redoing (a couple have had the outer edge of paint/lacquer stripped in readiness for repainting or diamond cutting and relaquering). The inserts of the outer face of all the wheels are nigh on perfect, with no black brake dust stains. The silver paint remaining near as it left the factory.

So, what are they worth? The 4 perfect caps, I feel confident could sell for circa £50 each. So if this isn't already too strong for you, feel free to make me an offer for the caps and wheels.

I'll take some pictures of the actual wheels if there's any interest.

Finally, I think these would suit someone looking to complete a high end restoration - as I know you can buy heavily used examples cheaply.
