Couple of questions for the brains trust.
Did the firsat wheel caps have a logo such as the gt rostyles?
Has anyone come up with a suitable replacementt for rostyle caps?
Were the logos always blue or was there a black version?
Cheers.

1975 brochures show they were a plain chrome cap - no logo

Photos of my NOS Leyland Mini centre caps (not GT). "Chromed" plastic caps to suit standard rostyle rims with cut out across centre hole (not circular).

Those caps are for the firsat 4 slot rims as fittex to Mini S. The Rostyle rims are different as are the centre caps.

Correct. Mini S 4 slot. GT 8 slot, Both centres are shown above, GT 8 slot circular metal (originally stainless) and Standard Leyland 4 slot "chromed" plastic - not circular fitting.
