[QUOTE=T5ER]I have just noticed something about VIMTO it has no roof rails :sorry: now i feel slightly left out in the estate club LOL[/QUOTE] I was specifically looking for no roof rails when I got mine. Lower it and the wheels might be seen in a different light. I don't think they look too bad, just that the car looks like its on stilts ATM. I also like rear mud flaps…but then maybe I have a flap fetish! :saythat:

personally, if the wheels are as new, i'd whip them off and flog them on ebay as such, would get a decentish price - then buy the lovely Titans that Murphy is advertising :) - not that i dislike the rims - just think anthracite Titans would look sublime :)

I dont have roof rials either. Sometimes I miss them but it makes it look sleeker. As sleek as several tons of volvo can anyway ;)

[QUOTE=T5ER]I have just noticed something about VIMTO it has no roof rails :sorry: now i feel slightly left out in the estate club LOL[/QUOTE] If your after a set theres a guy advertising a set of roof rails in this months VOC magazine for 90 quid. Nice find by the way, I think those wheels will look ace when its dumped in the weeds.
