    1st photo is excellent. Interesting use of Framing

    What products are you using to get'em clean & shiny?

    How did you get both of the there?

    yeah, i though the 1st was cool as well, seing as they were done with a bog standard digi cam and i'm no David Bailey!

    I polished them with Carnuba Diamond wax that i used to use on executive stuff when i did valeting years ago, bit it's about all gone now. Wurth glass cleaner, Wonder Wheels & Autosmart G101 for the wheels, and Autosmart Tyre dressing and Gel.

    Photo was taken at Newstead Abbey, i drove one, the wife drove the other

    Dead right Mrs M, looks loads better in the flesh. I've had 2 since my white one came back 'off loan!', best example of an S70 ex plod i've ever come across.

    Nowt wrong with OCD Dave, i like to keep my cars mint as well, can't stand driving round in chatty cars!

    Here's a few more pics of some of my previous T5's that i have on my pc.

    Yeah but he didn't own them all at once Moppy!!, I think this may be where your going wrong!. Try selling one just after you buy another, that way you'll only own one or two at a time...

    He, He, there have been more, but not got any pics! it all started with my first one, an S70 T5 CD R plate in silver, only a few years old when i got it, she was like new, fetched her from Northampton, and i'll never forget laughing my head off on the way back as the i kept slowing to 50 and booting it again upto err 70 ahem on the M1! I've had the bug ever since

    LOL at Mike, you're not wrong, she's was a real minter, credit to you, i've not seen one as nice (and i've seen a few!) She's now even better. Not for sale at the moment mate, but you'll have first dibs when she is

    You got a point mate, travelled miles to get her as well, and Saffron is my favourite colour, but she wasn't that nice when i got her. But someone made me an offer i couldn't refuse! Maybe i'll paint the white one Saffron LOL
