They look awesome but they are so expensive.

I found this on the USA eBay. Dont know how much postage would be and i dont know how much the reserve would be?

But they look so good.

They look nice but if they are anything like mine (looks the same from the pic) they leak. Wouldn't be real Mini part if it didn't though. :?

That standard locking caps leak, the screw on's are a little better but still leak and the only ones i have found that don't leak are the full on rover import screw ones we get here.

Typical mini!

If northern mini parts have them, try Mini Spares @ Padstow as they're in business together now. Even if they don't stock them up here I'm sure John would get you one. 8)

Ok..i picked up a Monza cap today from Mini Spares @ Padstow..$75 :roll:

Looks like it may stop leaks...but we will see. I'll fit it and take some pics, then i'll let you know how it goes on the cruise sunday.

Am I the only person to think both the Monza and Aston caps are UGLY? Looks like you've bolting a whole 'nother half a car to your rear guard.....
