Maybe, maybe not, but it's my mate who's selling them and thought someone on here might know someone who does own one. :?

They're not completely extinct, yet

Don't get me wrong, Ken. In a way I was bemoaning the lack of Visa ownership :cry:

I'll pass the message on, Elland is quite local to us and delivery may be possible. :)

That is (or was) a very nice looking Visa you have there Jayboy, it realy suits the Saxo alloys.

Yeah the Saxo wheels went down a treat for me.

A mate's friend fitted aftermarket wheels on a brand new VTR back in '98 and then wrote the car off soon after so the wheels were going spare and cost me about the same as a pair of new tyres would have cost and were hardly worn!

The offset is slightly different to the 13's on the Visa originally so the track was ever so slightly wider. That, combined with the lower profile rubber made it really stick to the road. Although those Michelin Sport Pilot SX's probably had something to do with it too!

Can't wait til its back on the road - Unfortunately the cambelt snapped. I started stripping the engine and haven't found any obvious damage so I'm gonna go down the route of sticking a new belt on and crossing my fingers!
