After spending stupid money on Colour coding my last Sport, only to sell it so as the new owner could benefit, I said never again.

However that was a month ago, so look what has just tuned up, two brand new side vents.

Lost for Words

I have never liked side steps, the problem is these are factory fit and are on the Vehicle Doc's (Log Book) so it's not quite so easy to add and remove these type of accessories. I have just forked out for a tow bar, (Dealer Fit) however I can not use it until the vehicle has been to the ITV station (MOT in English) and the Tow Bar added to the Vehicle Doc's
Even the Tyre size , and speed rating is on the Vehicle Doc's in Spain.

Now beg's the question, should I fit these, Red Edition Wheels?

Ahh, yes, I'd forgotten you had that issue. All sounds like a real PITA.

Personally, I prefer the existing wheels.

I may well try and cover them / mock them up with a length of some black gaffer tape. However I always find I rub my legs on them when I get out of the vehicle.
