Default That roof - Help !

Well today I met with Dark Blue Mark and became the new 'foster parent' for the Mugen HT. ADP joined us too but it appeared a very sad moment as I drove away.

I looked in my mirror and saw Mark looking longingly at my car and if it wasn't for his Oakleys...I bet I would have seen some liquid emotion

It wasn't til I got home and walked around the car a few times that I appreciated why it causes people to feel like that.

It is without doubt a thing of beauty, even my wife and 2 kids stared silently at it. No picture does it justice as...surprisingly the thing I like most about it is the air channel (or whatever it is) down the centre. It makes it look like a race car and somehow seems to lower the look of the overall car.

I'm off to have it sprayed tomorrow.......

Happy days

Oh, and just for you Mark...here it is safe and sound....(sorry !!)

Oh well, at least I have some money, which will be spent on double glazing or some new central heating or something... Funnily enough that doesnt seem to come close to making up for it.

Those pics dont do it justice - it looks better on silver than it did on mine!

It really is awesome - and yes im upset

Polished already! Enjoyed burning up the safety camera partnership van

Did you notice I took the wrong turning? Must have been the emotion
