Bit of an odd one but does anyone know when the 'folding' wheel brace was changed for the standard all one piece one?

I had a solid one on me 91. But no idea when they changed. When the engines did maybe?

I've got a folding one on my late 88 VM turbo.

Sounds about right, my June '87 Vouge has the folding version too.

I know this will throw the cat in amongst the pigeons but I had a folding one on my 1979 3 door, but my 1988 ex-police one had a solid wheel brace.

Looks like late eighties then....thought it might have been just 2 door ones that had it.

Unless of the plod specified one-piece?

Plod would have to go on a three day course before they were allowed to change a wheel.

Then another three days if the W/B design is changed
