What model hubcap?
Volkswagenboy - September 22nd, 2007 at 11:45 PM

Does anyone know what this late model hubcap is off? Is it just a generic hubcap? The reason I ask is that it's the first I've seen with the VW symbol like that.

I think for memory they were fitted to south african bay kombi's

No doubt it wouldn't be roadworthy, I could imagine it flying off at 100kph.
Thanks for your input nevertheless.
As for the USEFULL information from Mr Westwood, the one with the oil leaking animal killing Towdster... Well, according to a few misled imbeciles anyway... Thanks.
So were they only fitted to South African Bay's? Rust and gutter rash aside, I think it's a pretty damn ugly hubcap.
Thanks again,

Same, it's just a shame that the guy I bought the car that it was on from damaged it loading it onto the trailer.
