What model hubcap?
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.

Thanks.

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,
