The first car I drove regularly was my dads company Rouse 304R (it's handy when your dad is in charge of all motor insurance being written by an insurance company) , still one of my favourite cars.

cheers for the nice words lads , av always wanted 1 since a young age and at 27 the time was right to get 1 . i got a set of standard wheels with the car but they could do with a refurb . been tryin some 18inch cronos on , and they look really smart but i will have to have the arches rolled a little bit and some decent stopper cos the standard stuff look tiny lol

Bit like the original 850 brakes then :lol:.
They would look nice refurbed however for bigger stoppers, as you envisage, then aftermarkets will be the way to go.
Nice one mate, chuffed for you.
