Focus WRC memorabilia
Discussion
This is a complete long shot but I'm out of ideas. I've been trying to find a wheel from a mk1 Focus WRC (99-05 4 stud type) I've been looking on eBay forever and have only seen one which I foolishly didn't buy.
Currently there's none on there but there's several 5 stud ones from the later cars, which I don't want so I've tried some other avenues.
I've messaged MSport, who said they don't think they have any because they were likely to have been scrapped or sold, but if they find one they'll list it on eBay.
I've messaged Erik Wevers in the Netherlands through one of the rally spares websites and had a very poilte reply which was unfortunately a no (but he also has 5 stud ones)
I've also sent messages to everyone on eBay selling other WRC parts on the off chance, but again, despite the replies, no luck. I've tried all the rally parts sites, and googled various combinations of words, sending emails and messages back to everyone I can find.
I even asked a guy in a Youtube video because he had some in the back of a shot.
So... does anyone have any suggestions for who/where I can try? Who else used to run the cars or who still does? I know there's a few in Ireland and scattered around Europe still but don't know who to ask.

I have one from Monte Carlo ‘99 but (a) it’s extremely bent and (b) it’s not for sale, sorry.
You could try contacting Slowly Sideways, I know someone on there used to have one and you never know what leads you may get:

BGM Sport run a couple of cars from that period.
Paul Benn Motorsport, Giles Phillips Motorsport and Protech used to prep them.
I think MSL Motorsport still have one.
Thanks for these suggestions.Paul Benn Motorsport, Giles Phillips Motorsport and Protech used to prep them.

I’ve sent some messages off this morning, Protec have already replied and suggested Paul Benn.
The only one I can’t find details for is MSL as their website is under construction.
