2006 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Zermatt Silver

Now if I could just figure out how to attach a photo, I could post a picture of my Stormers. They look quite bright now that I've polished them. In fact they look easily as bright as the ones on my jeep, and they're polished, laquered alloy.

Bob.[/img]......no, that didn't work RRS 4.2 S/C. Zermatt. Tints. Stormers. 150+ paint defects, wonkey bonnet, scratches, detached doorseal. suspension faults. To sum it up, a ï¿½60k pile of cr4p!

The Photobucket thing is OK if you want to maintain a generic library of photos that you want to share with others (outside of here, I mean) - but as we've recently noticed, links to offsite providers do tend to slow down the site (as the forum needs to go and find your offsite pics as it's composing the page to display in your browser). If the photos are purely for this site, then it's best to upload them to your gallery.

2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 SE Arctic Frost

A lot of the stormer wheels you buy from E bay are actually factory seconds.

There are people that actually buy these rejects but they only get the wheels, the tyres are cut off the rims before sale.

Thats why alot of the Stormer 'replica' alloys on Ebay come complete with cheap japanese rubber on them. Arctic Frost TDV6 SE. Aspen Leather, Cherry Wood, Privacy Glass, PTI, Tow Pack, Mudflaps, Tasmods, a new Fuelflap, a RRSport.co.uk umbrella in the boot & a RRSport.co.uk sticker on the rear glass.

No, I think the guys who by these wheels and stuff have to have special contracts with LR.

Otherwise I would be driving around on Stormers myself. Arctic Frost TDV6 SE. Aspen Leather, Cherry Wood, Privacy Glass, PTI, Tow Pack, Mudflaps, Tasmods, a new Fuelflap, a RRSport.co.uk umbrella in the boot & a RRSport.co.uk sticker on the rear glass.

The guy I bought mine from has hundreds cast up for him abroad somewhere. He sells a lot of wheels and tyres on ebay. Some original, some not.

Hi Bobs_buggy - I see you are from Hinckley & presume you bought your car from Triniyt ?

I live in Nuneaton ( just ) and again just a stones throw from Trinity.

When do you pick your car up ?

I too have a Supercharged & believe this is what your awaiting........

Did you deal with Bill @ trinity ?

Ref " Stormers " .............. the spare on a S/C is only a 19 - this is the maximum size that can be fitted underneath the car.

I have found this to be the worst car for knackering your alloys - they are so easily scraped/chipped/damaged - so I will leave it for some time before I bother to repair them or even replace them?

I found Trinity to be the cheapest on tyres £199 + vat - as I had to replace one not so long ago [ details in my gallery ]

Ps

was that you in the queue for Bubbles & Babes on Sunday
