Could be that he hasn't cleaned the rims properly?
Were they really £1000 new?

Let's be honest....it doesn't guarantee anything They came out in the 93 model year so can't really be described as vintage

It can be done but you need the same rim as the original. I don't know who made the rims. Guessing it would have been a US rim manufacturer like Sun or Weinmann. Requires some epoxy and rivits.
