    Some pics of the C70

    Took the T5 out the garage for 5 mins today and snapped a few shots with my phone because I dont really have a decent one. I'll get some better pictures when the car is taxed and I can take it away from the house



    Thanks

    Its bloody not, I was going over the car outside with the HD cleanse before I put wax on it when I got back round to the bonnet there was dust all over it and the top of the wings I dont know what it was the only thing that took it off was clay, so its covered in marring again lol I'll get the polisher on it this weekend.

    Are those Stock Calipers? They look good in red! Might get mine painted...

    Nice looking car, convertible/coupe always the pick of the range I reckon.
