6c Euclid with reverse fitment of convex lug nut wheel

Over the years there has been discussion on the detailed convex lug nut or convex smooth wheels that were fitted to the M9 Cooper Jarrett and the 6c Euclid and a few other models as well.
Points mentioned included the extra time needed to fit these wheels given they needed to be facing the correct way.
It has been suggested that this labour intensive fact could have been why they discontinued those wheels. Pity, because they would have suited so many other models.

While it has been discussed a number of times I think I have only ever seen one other the same as mine. I say think because the photos were not clear.

While it has been discussed a number of times I do not recall a photo ever have been posted on the VBD or elsewhere on line so I thought I would share probably my most loved error model with a couple of close up pics.

they shouldve just made the lug detail on both sides of the wheel

That's an excellent error Bert, the wheel nuts can be difficult to see in listings but it's something I will look out for in the future. I don't fancy my chances of finding one though :)
