I've no idea about stuff like this. Do you use a machine ? Are you going on the pistonhead run this Sunday?

All done by hand. Sand paper, water, metal polish and microfibres. You'd manage no problem

Piston Heads run? I assume this is in Englandshire somewhere?

Looking good mate! I Need to do my knob sometime as well

Piston heads run is an aberdeen one, check out the Scottish section on piston heads! I'm on a stagger this weekend or I would have gone!

Loving the car and the photos are awesome.

...and for some reason, I've read this thread with a Welsh accent in my head - it's late, I should get some sleep!

My rear fog light is loose due to corroded and broken bracketry, so I picked up some new parts today. I'll be fitting this before the rear bumper gets a respray & smoothing this month.

Hey there I also stay in Aberdeen! the suns about the start coming out I can't wait.

Quickly, I didn't happen to see this parked up in the Robert Gordon university did I?

Also spotted another in the long stay car park at the airport. Funny cause at first I couldn't find any but more and more seem to be appearing...

Cheers
Earl
