Wow !!!!

That is a fantastic colour, much better than the blacks, silver and white ones we have all seen.

Love it, more importantly when are you taking us all out for a spin ?!!!?

Looks superbmate.

Was it worth the wait ?

I'm having a little difficulty grasping this concept. You collect a new car from a showroom and the first thing you do is wash it? :?

Beautiful car and fantastic colour but shouldn't you be out there just driving the thing?

LOL, if you only new the half of it (or me lol), I spent over an hour going around the car with a plush micro fibre polishing and inspecting the paintwork and body (new cars are so dirty now days!!), then spent another 45 minutes sealing the wheels and exhaust for the journey home and so they would be easier to detail later.

And the above is the beginning of the weekend of detailing her from top to toes to make sure there's lots of lovely protection, OCD me yup! :grin: But you could have eaten ya dinner of my R34's engine. But don't worry she's getting driven :twisted:

Oh yes mate and it's just getting better, can't wait until it's had its optimisation then i can really open her up, lets put it this way, from 5th to 6th, gentle touch of the pedal and 3 figures under 3000 rpm and not even breaking a sweat!!! I'm glad there's 3 places to see your speed!!! :o

Feels so much smaller when your in it (apart from passing parked cars) and really really nimble for such a fat a$$ed gal! :-D, not too thirsty too, but then I'm being gentle with her.

I guess you don't use the Kosovan car wash or Polish polishers like me then :grin:

Enjoy! :thumb:
