The VXR in the Vauxhall heritage centre is probably what you are after. I'm sure Graeme Lambert said they were trying to punt their two VX220's a few years back....

My theory:
The real speedlines were made in a very limited batch of 100 sets iirc. (65 for the cars, and 35 went to Thorney)
Only thing I can think of is that Vauxhall was somehow forced to use the wheels from nr1 on a customer car, as there was no way they could get their hands on originals anymore.
it´s not a showstopper Tooshy. If you twist an arm or 2 here on .org, you can get your hands on an original set. 
They look lovely on mine btw
