Nice to see that I'm not the only one on wire wheels, to start with I couldn't get rid of them soon enough, but they have grown on me (especially after a kid shouted "look dad, it's the James Bond car!" at a petrol station last year), and now I'm not so sure whether I'll replace them with steel wheels after all...
Are yours also from Dayton?

Ulf,
     These were a Uk dealer option when new in the sixties, I prefer them to the steel wheels myself and plenty of admirers comment on them also.
the snow arrived today on the west cumbrian coast.

Brad,
I think that James Bond producers made a huge mistake by having him drive some other cars, while Pagoda would be by far the most appropriate:-)

great decor…. I like that industrial background, with clouds heavy with snow…. exactly like in "Skyfall" :)

Hope you hided your jewel well inside a hitter garage before the snowfall?
