I saw a car with wheels that turned.

Anything related to the 206CC

I was the wierdest thing!

The car (a BMW) stopped at some traffic lights but the wheels were still turning slowly. When it pulled away, they hardly seemed to move at all (a bit like wheel spokes sometimes do on telly), so the car seemed almost to glide along. :?

Obviously, the wheels were fitted with some sort of hub-cap that could spin freely. They were very shiny and, from where I was standing, looked no different to alloys. Has anyone else seen such a thing? I want some. :)

if you do asearch (styling section I think) I posted something about these wheels a few months ago. There was even a link to the manufacturers web site.
