        Chromed 15 Inch Wire Wheel for Early XKE's & MK 2

Wheel is in nice condition, ideal as a rider.  Hub and rim look pretty good.  There is some surface rust as shown in the pictures, but outer parts are good.

I polished some of it and I was satisfied, but I think it needs more.  The mechanical condition is really good, no dents, bends dings, scrapes or bent spokes. 

This is the early wheel that was MADE IN ENGLAND, not India.  I believe the hub was forged, not cast as were the later wheels.

This wheel is correct for cars through about 1966, ones that had that rolled type of hub, later wheels (Dunlop, made in India) had a flatter hub, no roll.  However, this could fit Series 2 XKE's  to 1971.

However, a chunk of the criticisms levelled at the Insight were addressed by Honda last month when it revealed its nips and tucks for the Insight for 2012.

The Jaguar F-Type's a closet Star Wars geek

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Our friends over at Jalopnik are currently at Jaguar F-Type media event over in Seattle, where they had a chance to catch up with its design Wayne Burgess (check out our full interview with him here), who revealed some interesting sources of inspiration for some of its detailing. The first is a real easter egg - a detail that once you've discovered it you can't help but see - the front lamp cans are based on Star Wars' TIE Fighter. What has been seen can not be unseen.
