I'm aware that there have been posts about Jensen alloys being fitted to P5/Bs but I've recently seen a very tidy looking P5 MK111 Coupé advertised for sale on an Australian site (can't attach a link) which is fitted with a (polished) set of what look to be the old Jaguar Kent Alloys, as used on the XJs and XJSs in the 70s/80s.
I don't recall seeing that style of wheel on P5s before and I wondered, only out of curiosity, whether anybody else has them fitted?

The PCD is different so the hubs would need machining to fit those original wheels, but ISTR hearing that those wheels were being remanufactured to any PCD. Unless I dreamt all that.....

Ah, that would make sense; I've just found some new ones advertised on a well-known online auction site described as 'Kent Style', and later as replicas, that fit P5s and P6s.
That being the case, the ones in the advert, which did look well polished, were probably new(ish) - I didn't think the old Jag wheels would fit.
