Please note this guy manipulates his own auctions, I have warned people on the VW forums as he is well known on there.
He has 2 other usernames he uses to bid up his auctions.
Feedback from the VW buyers is varied, some have a good experience, others realise the wheels have been repaired/are not as described so have to haggle the price down when they go to collect the wheels.
He is a trader and has people all over UK/Europe looking for wheels for him, he then sells them on ebay for a mark up.
The fact he is manipulating his own auctions is the main thing that f11cks me off. I have reported him to ebay but as yet nothing has been done.
Also note at times his feedback becomes Private, like 2 weeks ago, when he tries to negotiate his way out of having someone give him negative feedback.
Just to be clear, although the dimensions are the same these aren't the expensive 3-piece AMGs that were an option on the R129. They look like this:
BTB, where are those pics from? are those 15 Hole SL alloys in the background for sale?!

Mr Zack Noor.
I have spoken with this guy in the past.
When I was going through the purchase of my c320, I was looking for a set of wheels and found a set of 18 inch amgs which were on one of his auctions.
Cut a long story short, they were of a s55 and the offset was something like 44 whereas the offset on the c is 36? iirc. Anyways, this clown basically kept me on the phone at midnight one night telling me these wheels would go on no problems and that the dealer i got advise from was talking rubbish.
I was a little dumb then so sent the cheque out only to find out from a friend that there was no way the wheels would go on without a bit of work.
It took numerous calls to get him to return the cheque even though i had cancelled it with my bank.
So, avoid at all costs. He is a liar and will try and screw you.
