I was quite nervous about it, if I'm honest! As a fan of the Mk1 Rover above all variants, I'm naturally a bit of a traditionalist but I love hairpin wheels so took a punt. The fact that Kenton got them brilliantly refurbed in the original Rover 'Silver Sparkle' gives them a degree of authenticity! I'm going to get the whole suspension replaced next year, at which point I'll have it lowered by about 20mm so that the wheels sit more traditionally into the arches. It does look even better in real life and I've found another way to fall in love with this car!
