vera!Dont want to be boring but I have never put a picture of my car on here yet. Today I have spent all day cleaning inside and outside the car as well as the engine after a slight mishap. It is the first day without snow and rain for a while so I thought I would make the most of it...
What do you think?

Thanks again chaps for the comments I don't mind the wheels But I would prefer comets, I also hate the ride as I am running really low profile tyres. I would sell the wheels anytime for the right money or swap. Anyway thanks again people
