I've got a Red Leather Mountney, but will have to take a decent photo tomorrow.

Here's how it looked when I bought it, but got the leather professionally repaired and cleaned and the black taken off so its back to silver spokes.

This is one of my favorites ever:

It's an "Atiwe Indianapolis 1", sold in the seventies by the german company "Atiwe", but is believed to be of italian origin. Fantastic handling as the rim is very thick and soft.

This is one I bought last year from ebay, not knowing anything about the origin:

At the moment I'm trying to decide which one to use. As the second one is more sixties (and the sixties is the main theme of this Mini), I'll probably end up with this.


Cheers

Mountney 10 inch i absolutly love it but trying to manveour 13 inch rims with this little blighter is a right pain in the ass!!! :thumbsup:

Driving fine, parking doh!

Strange i also have one bolt missing like mini_mad69 maybe there is a steering wheel thief out there who tries to steal them but gives up after the first bolt? :thumbsup:

Replacing it soon actually as it and the boss dont fit this new NRG quick release i have bought.
