Didn't read any of these posts mate but if it was me I'd be able to buy ALL of the things you listed for £500 or less. But that's just me, I wouldn't ever pay that much for some wheel nuts, it's pathetic. £15 ones off ebay do the same job. If you want extra security buy a couple of sets, that's only £30. I paid £150 for my wheels and tyres, ok the wheels weren't exactly my first choice (multispokes) but they do look good, and the tyres (Toyo T1-S) were almost brand new and easily worth over £150 alone. Ok, I got lucky with the wheels let's say you pay £300 for some 2nd hand wheels, tyres, and locking wheelnuts, that leaves you with £200 for the panhard rod which costs about half of that. Sorted!
