I have had a response from Compmotive that they may be doing another run in the nearish future. Possibly September. A bit late for this summer but gives a bit of time to save up, and actually cheaper than what I was told a set of used would go for. HSP1551 is the product number

They are quoting £135 plus VAT. The longer bolts are needed too at £6 each

Hope I have funds available. The last batch didn't coincide with a healthy bank balance.

Mmm, I wonder if they'd do me a set of centre caps for my Ronals, I lost one a while back.
I'm going to drop them a line.

properly made...unlike the Soccer ball wheel bolts made in China and sold on ebay (snapping before the official torque setting on original bolts)

Their centre caps will not fit your real Ronal alloys Andy.

£810 for 5 wheels (inc vat).
£120 for bolts (presuming the £6 per bolt includes vat?)
Delivery charge...?
Look at what other classic car owners pay for poor cast replicas and it doesn't sound to bad (but for most this is 1/3 of a current "usable" V4's value).
Still watching with interest..just need to think what car they would suit?
