My other car has alloys and a full sized steel spare with a 50mph limit - I have been told that the limit is due to the wheel bolts being suited to the alloys and when used on the steel wheel are not ideally suited, hence the speed limit. Not sure I believe it myself but that's the usual reason stated. Seems counter-intuitive to me I must say.

Just bought a 55 plate Vrs with 38k and FSH for £5k. Some squeaky bushes on it but the engine, clutch and 'box are mint. 1.9 pd engines are as reliable as a hammer IMO and I've had 4 of them, 2 of which were over 155k when I sold them. Still pulled like a train, produced zero smoke and used no oil at all. Top motors.

I will take the rims if still available. I will PM you with contact details.
