I believe they will be the VW Helios off the old Phaeton; 19 x 8.5, ET45, 5 x 112, 57.1 CB, made by Borbet - sounding so damn good right? And then the weight.. 30.8lbs/13.9kg.

Not for performance, but for the looks yes.

They've been doing this since way back when just to annoy Adam's granddad.

Nice to see an R Wagon too, rather than just a modded base model

A lot of the cleanest rides tend to be 'tarted up' lower models - I guess the money is spent elsewhere.

I wouldn't mind an R wagon in that color either.
