    Mate, not urgent at all. I picked up the car for very cheap, it had a DSG issue, damage to the rear bumper and an amazing amount of damage to the wheels (still usable), like the previous owner just parked by sence of touch...

    DSG is fixed, rear bumper is fixed, now on the look out for some wheels, I would prefer to keep it standard but was also considering VW/audi in the same size. Let me know if you want to shift them.

    Cheyne, can I ask where the wreckers are? I'm after some undamaged neptune wheels
    They are called European Auto Spares in Villawood, NSW. The car i found the wheel from is sitting on some Neptunes, but whether they have been snapped up or not yet is another question. They responded to me pretty quickly.

    The process should be the same for the Octy.
    Cheers!

    I'll give it a look.

    No worries mate, thought as much. I managed to get that same one for my Superb. Might be worth checking places like skodateile, cars-equipment.

    No longer available through skodateile, for the three spoke MFSW.

    I am also looking for a three spoke MFSW for our Superb.
