Are we sure it's the same car? One has a VT bootlid while the other has a VN bootlid.

All aboard the fail train.

I can't see how those wheels are structurally sound. A decent whack from a pothole on the non spoked side would seriously shag that rim.

although the question has ben raised, the rim itself looks to have decent structural integrity to do the job. the owner however needs to lack all sense of decency and integrity and have an unhealthy obsession for questionable rim jobs. for shame Bob Jane......

Its the same car, no doubt, the wing is the same, the wheels but painted, if you look you can see the big HOLFAIL sticker on the back window, the fuel flap is the only different thing... its just the 2nd abortion attempt
