Apart from the Ramp (which I would continue to use personally if it's been on that long with no issues, main issue is that they can be oval, yours obviously isn't) you've got a choice of UNI auto (Injun), SIL (Injun), FA Italia (Italyun) and the Tino ones that Cam Lam sell. Uni Auto is the cheapest and best finished of the 3 that I sell, I think it's the only hub that MB sell too at the moment.
