    Just a wash, but that's the R looking a lot better

    First wash since the minor detailing in August, and she so needed it. Got another set of Comets, which will be refurbed and then the Titans go back on Gul.

    I still have my eyes on a V70 2.5D in silver. Have you still got the bumper please? I'd have to take another off the road cos of the insurance though, so that means another garage.

    From Graeme to Graham!!

    Tints were put on hold cos I bought Gul tbh. Not going too dark with the car being dark'ish, so deep smoke I think.

    Think I've got the message mate. I'm wanting the Comets back on anyway, so that I have the buffer back between what the speedo says and what the car's actually doing, unlike now, when my buffer is about 1mph.
