The obvious answer is Vauxhall, but for cheaper prices try Ebay

I paid £800 for mine. 19" 5 spoke. Be cautious when you search as they do a 6 spoke 18" too.

Watch out for kerbs; they are difficult to maintain, but comfort is fine.

Tyre size: 235x35x19 all round, and there is someone on here who has these on the front and 265x30x19 on the rear.

I may try that myself soon.


No you can't have them. :P
