Love the look of the car mate, egg crate grill would finish the front off nice

I was waiting for someone to say something... U a red or blue then fella?
Thanks for the comments guys, I'm over the moon, I had to put a tyre on this week but bar a cardboard template under the abs ecu to assist a loose connection & now we have no lights. Thanks Steve.
Plans are a nice rip with stainless pipe, bumpers spoiler & mirrors painted & a wheel refurb in possibly a darker colour. Ideally I'd like an LPG conversion for when I'm in low & slow mode but honestly it handles the road well. Eventually some decent coilovers will replace the pro sports but I have a list of "wants" to make it mine.

They do but are very poor at night. I'd rather keep her straight & looking good. Lol
I'm not sure on the windows, they do pass a lot of light through but I can have them tinted legally if needs be.
We are thin on police around north wales so they tend to leave you alone if you don't rub it in with silly mods & license plates. I've not had a car with tinted windows for 10 years but I feel it suits this car & I actually like them as they're not quite limo.

Just as an update, I forgot to put up pics of the interior. It's in very good condition but the leather could do with a re-dye in places. I've spent a lot of time this weekend just fiddling with little jobs.
Recent mpg on a cruise up to Preston.
Interior shots..
I won't bore you with detailing pics but here's a bit of beading.
& the latest edition... I had to! Lol
Cheer myself up after missing the rolling road day...
