Now that's what I call inflation!

A set of 4 was about a tenner when we had them made (no, they are NOT "Original" from Lotus), probably about 15 years ago?????

I have a set of the green/yellow on Angies wheels, and a set of the Silver/black to go on them once the car is painted and the set of wheels for it are powdercoated......

..... I may still have another set somewhere, but haven't seen them for years. (for this much each, my pile of crap in the garage has just gone up in value again!!!!!!)

Wow! that's some inflation.

I know the seller, he was buying a lot of Elan parts a few years ago and I think he has sold off his Elan
and is now selling his parts stock.

[dapinky]

He's been listing a lot of his Elan stuff (at stupid prices) for quite a while.......

...... he's not interested in 'market pricing' for sale of them - as is his choice!

(but he is also acting fraudulently if he is claiming these to be "Original" items, when they are aftermarket production and not at all rare!)

A quick search of the forum indicates that a lot of these were produced and sold by Gareth (theelanman) back in 2006 for a fiver a set!!!!!!

I’ve got one of the originals. Maybe we could get some made

[Elanlover]

That's the price for one?????

Is it 5'x5' and wall mounted???? Sheesh.

The price has increased to £120 (+£30 postage) !!

Why/what were these for ? Think I have some of these in a box in the garage.......

My father owns a printing business and can make a roll...

I print my own and laminate them to waterproof them. Last a couple of years at least, the side not in the sun when parked, even longer.
Print on glossy A4 photopaper.. you might have to adjust the size for your printer... Have fun!
