Looks like a Series 2 so 4x110. They would come up a treat with a good polish.

eBay ad says '86, which would make it an FC :? And a "D" plate? Not convinced the seller is much of an expert, lol

dvla says registered '85 but produced '84. The seats look like the grey s2 seats with the red centre stripe to me..... plus no n/s door mirror and single washer jet

And doesn't the steering wheel just look S2 as well? .....As Tim, the single washer jet is also shouting S2
It's just hard to tell with these few pics. It was in Scotland in 2009, sold towards the back end of that year.

I'd just placed it as S3 and thought little of it......but now I think it might be an import or a late S2 sale.
We need someone to ask if the wheels are 13" or 14". Any takers amongst those desirous of them?

I'm fairly confident they aren't Alleycats, which were more like a star design than mesh. Having said that, I'm not sure what they actually are :oops:

Alleycats...
