Blimey that's a clean and well looked after car, nice find. .....did you get it from someone with OCD LOL

There was someone on here (I think it was Rasher who used to polish the underneath) and I wonder if he had a hand in it

Shaun

PS I think the roof scoop should go

I've seen that car somewhere before but I can't remember where...

Nice choice there Simon, you dark horse you - what's the spec?

And is the roof scoop hiding a roof vent?

I knew I'd seen the car and pics before, now I know where - well done Simon and after you said you were going for something more economical.

Congrats Simon, very nice.

I notice you're not online at the moment, so can only assume you're cleaning the grubby engine bay
