Do it arun, 116bhp if ya got the 90, or 140 for 110
Get one soon man!

Viewing one this weekend, I've only found 110s so far, not many 90's around and not really cheaper on insurance so probs will be a 110 anyway :)

Also what was the insurance comp you're with? need a few quotes :)

That's what I meant, when they're on or anything. You should get some 'before' pics though. As long as they're worth it I'd say heck with the 5.5 our trip lol... And couriers deff seem to throw with stuff here in Holland, so anything is better than that eh

I have no idea what wheels they are.. My dad just told me that he saw my boss working on the car and my boss said he was going to try to take them off and keep them for me, but didn't know if the guy he had to bring the car to tonight would let him so not sure yet anyway... The car it's wiper motor catched fire somehow, that's why it was written off aparantly... Pity he already had it taken away at the time I heard about it, because it was red too, might've been able to get some panels off of it with good paint :(

Caddy owners over here never seem to have bad taste in alloys so it can't be that bad lol :p But I'll see tomorrow if I can have them and what they are... *Hopes for your old BBS wheels.. black with silver/chrome lip :D*

Was gonna get some old second hand Golf mk3 lowering kit too but you guys convinced me to save up for better :/...

EDIT: Kk, just to answer your question: they're very simple 5 spoke alloys, that's all he told me. My boss tried fitting some old steel wheels since it needed wheels for transport, unfortunately they didn't fit so he brought the car away with the alloys. He sold it without the alloys though. This means that if the Caddy gets scrapped the alloys(maybe with tires?) will come back to my boss and then I can get them I guess... I'm guessing they're AEZ 5 spokes, lots of Caddys have those

The front side panels were rusting btw and the bonnet had fire damage. The whole dashboard was burned out too... That's scrap-worthy for Dutch people..., but somehow I don't think I'll get the wheels (don't know why)... Gonna order wheelspacers though :D
