Such a beautiful and mint 4G

Thanks fella.
Oi, you should be in bed by now...I'll tell your mum you've been up late.

[simonc]

You have clearly never seen the lanky sod...

Oh I dunno, Iain. His handwriting makes me think of some young thrusting Turk, all swave and deboner like.

Sorry to shatter your illusions, but if you do a search for his name on t'interweb, this is the top hit...

Nice Simon,you are running out of things to do this car!
Btw there's a little dust in that engine bay you should attend to,letting the side down and all

[simonc]

Morning Greg, you know you're not far off the mark about the dust. Last week, as I was feeling a bit lazy, I went to a snazzy new car-wash that's just opened up not far from my place. Besides washing it does detailing and has all the kit, including an air-conditioned room where they really go to town on a customer's car.
Anyway, while I was there, supervising the wash procedure ("Oi, mate, you've missed a bit"), I opened the bonnet and asked the manager if he thought I needed the engine bay cleaning. He looked in the bay, then looked at me, looked in the bay again and said, 'Why? It's too clean to clean".

Hope you son't mind, but here's some shots I took yesterday, post suspension fitment. I like its new look, a tad lower but still comfortable to drive. I must say, the handling feels really nice and it's so bloody nice to be in squeak/rattle/creak free cabin.
Anyway, hope you like the way she's looking.
In the afternoon sun.

Nice derriere.

Lower, but not too low.


The interior is next on the agenda, (after doing the engine mount) and then, when I'm finally convinced someone in Malaysia can match the colour, she's off for a respray.

Some good bits gone into this car looks awesome

Have you considered a new front lip? Would really make the car in my opinion..

@simonc - great shots of your Lude, sooo shiny!!

[simonc]

Thanks fellas. I'm attempting to give Shiny a run for his money.
@JEBB4, morning to you. Yes sir, I have considered it but to be honest, the ones I've seen have been a bit 'boy-racer' for my taste. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with them, it's just that a bloke of my err, mature years, might look as though I'm trying a little too hard, if you see what I mean. However, never say never...
