Really shouldâve 
Respectfully disagree on that. GKs never had them when they were built so the Dunlop is the period correct option. On a personal level, wire wheels look fucking gash as well. Borranis are fractionally less gash than the geriatric UK patten ones but itâs still degrees of shite.

Exactly, this would look guff on Dunlops or Rostyles.

Itâs ten years older than the GK so would have had to suffer them when new which is the key difference. Even then, Borrani pattern with three point spinner would look better than the cartwheels that one is on.
Yep, love the Dunlop âpepperpotâ alloys 
although the green one looks to have steel wheels on it?
If we are doing it properly

So thatâs where Morgan got the rear section aesthetics for the Aero 8 from
The original wheels were all those pepperpot steels with a hub adapter and 3-eared spinners that are on the green and cream cars (mine was almost a duplicate of the cream car). They are 5J x 15, so nowhere near wide enough for the right tyres for its weight and performance, but they do look right to me - wires just donât suit it IMO.

From my archives; Alison is pictured next to Becky, my old 730i.
Funny how a supermini stands so much taller than what I remember as a big car!
My first FWD car was a similar 735i but that was fucked.
Becky wasnât fast but she was very comfortable. And at 12-15mpg not exactly economical!

N868CWK was mine. Understood to be an ex CID car, it was fast (for the time) and economicalâŠ
Bloody brilliant car. Boy I had fun it that car!

I just saw an electric Kia EV9 in the flesh. For an enormous SUV, itâs exceedingly well designed. It certainly looks good in black. My photo doesnât really do it justice.
