    George,

    I'm with you on the items you listed, although the larger rims aren't that big of a deal to me as I have the same size on my car.

    I noticed the listing in the same auction for a silver 2.4S coupe that has an estimate of 38-42K Euros. Boy, the value of the early S cars is certainly very strong now. Wonder what it will sell for?

    The 7&8X15 were homologated in april '74 for the RS. Please remove your rims immediately, and source some others in the correct size, and with the correct build date.
    Hi George,

    I think you're making that stuff up just to get my wheels. I do know some crazy Swiss guy that has the correct set of wheels and tires but they have green paint on them that would have to be removed first before I'll take them.

    That 1 photo of the 2.4L is quite terrible. I'll do a follow up after the auction on it's sale price to see how it compares to the estimate. Now go to bed George it's late over there.

    Talking Beat to the draw

    Erine,

    You beat me to the draw, I was going to post the same pages from the homoligation papers.

    All the best!

    I forgot that I knew that! I swore the 8" wheels were not wrong but then I could not find it anywhere. Being that it was in the Homoligation papers, could the 8" wheel be used for racing purposes and not delivered on new customer cars?

    Correct or not the 7" and 8" wheel looks soo much better than the 6" and 7" setup anyway.

    Best,

    Don
