Default Beautiful car

This post is apropos of nothing really, merely that I just popped to Sainsbury's for some sandwiches and on my way back to the car, I looked at it sitting there in the car park, sideways on to me, soft-top in place (in the drizzle ) and thought, "That car looks beautiful!". Then I thought, "It looks beautiful, top-down too...." and then I thought, " AND it looks beautiful with its hard-top on!"

In fact; it really is a very beautiful car

I have to wholeheartedly agree with you Pete.

I still can't think of any other car on the road, in terms of looks at least, that I would prefer to be driving except some that are way way way outside my price bracket.

Me too. I parked my car this morning and looked back as I walked away from her, thinking the same as Pete.
Looking at the ton of other cars as I made my was across the car park only an RX-7 and XK8 made me look twice. But they're tin tops and the sun was shining !

Even though I don't get to drive my baby everyday - I always go into the garage to stare at her - she looks so damn good! Haven't washed her in two weeks but still looks amazing! The Zaino is really holding up!

Oh and I love shining the exhaust tips! A little bit of brasso followed by Z6! Amazing!

Oh I was driving through Leicester Square a few weeks back when three guys walked up to the car and asked if it red lined at 12,000 - told them it red lined at 9,200! They wanted me to rev it - so I obliged - just a short blip of the throttle! They nearly fell over with excitement!

I've got to say MC Blue is by far the best colour when the car is wet (and dry come to think of it). The colour changes so much when you catch it from different angles. It looks superb. I can see my car from where I'm sat which isn't terribly good for my work rate! When it's raining I can sit and watch the water run off it for hours.............................

.............(note to self - get out more )
