Across from us there are some " special people " flats
Theres one particular resident that doesnt like to mix with the locals so when he feels lonely, which is quite often he phones the fire brigade.
They were admiring the T5 though, said it was a nice clean example, they couldnt beilive it would do near on 150
Its been debadged so no-one knows what it is, proper wolf in sheeps clothing

Is it just a trick of the light or is the lip on your front spoiler a different colour?.

very nice

Hey TC it may look a different colour, ive primered the corners after filling the scratches in and a guy at work will paint them for me for £50 which i thought was decent.
The rest of it though is the proper 419 Silversand Metallic
I recall you offering the same deal but it come down to the distance and petrol factor.
But i'd like some engine stuff done if your up for it, maybe a Scottish flag on the Spark Plug cover ?

lol mine's got a half inch of dust on her...
after two weeks in the garage, next to where the tumble dryer is
I hadnt washed mine for 6 weeks it was absolutely disgusting.
Pete said i had an anthracite car it was that dirty
I spent a good few hours on her today with my new mop, its made a load of difference, the paint was flat before but now it reflects everything. My neighbour said its like looking at a still pond looking at the roof, its like a mirror
All my hard work wasnt in vain.
Just for all you boffins out there i used G3 Cutting compound and then G3 Finishing Wax with a mop.

You may want to use some G10 after the G3 to get the swirls out, I thought mine as a mirror finish until I saw it in a different light, then all the swirl marks from the buffing show up.

Cheers Lee, I'm going to HAVE to do mine now! Nice work, like someones mentioned, mines got a nice layer of grime and cack on it at the moment, and I'm taking the kids to Chessington tomorrow, so it'll have to wait till Wednesday.
I'll look into that G3 stuff, don't think my paint's been polished in years.
