Maybe you could add reflection_exponent 0.7 or so to finish statement for the wheels
metal petals.
Also some charring along the contact point by using a texture map having the wood or
onion or
spherical pattern; wood pattern can use turbulence best.
It looks like diffuse is too high. And I am puzzling over the reflection of the stand
because it's
so narrow (in the petals).

The quality of the render is excellent so that's not surprising.
