Nope been up the loft and checked no s lites was eddie44 not selling some a few weeks back.???

A convertible h'mmmm are you sure ???? I mean Col when the roof is down your head will be above the windscreen.:eek::blackeye::p;)

Has the roof wear issue been sorted??? is all the rattles from the roof fixed???? can you not get a long term test drive in one first??? just so you are 100% happy. The rear view is awful and no rear wiper is bad.

Fi you got ANY wheels that would go on an 'S. I'm just looking for them to fit an 'S so I can keep my wheels so any wheels that go on an 'S would do.

Translation : The wheels on the convertible at the mo wouldn't go on an 'S as standard so I couldnae just swap 'em. :)

why do you need a set of S Lites.??? I mean if you buyin a Cabrio take the wheels of the Cabrio put them on the S and then take your wheels of the S and put them on the Cabrio.:question:

I never traded a mini yet that has had the correct/original wheels fitted and no dealer has complained yet.

I've got set of four 17" S wheels with Pirelli runflats with about 3-4mm of tread and next to no marks on them. Had them as a winter spare set but now need the room. Could put them on E-bay for about £3-400 but can't be bothered with the hassle.
Make me an offer ££
