dont take life for granted, one day your in peak physical condition, late 20s with your dream job and car, 4 years later after a bike crash your still crippled with an ingrowing nail on your good leg and still dead from the knee down on the OTHER leg unable to do sod all and walk for long with the prospect of yet another life changing operation ahead in attempt to be "fixed".
wont be driving my baby till atleast sunday/monday and truly hate the idea of leaving the coupe to sit as thats when things go tits up in my experience.
truly jealous of all of you who can just get in your coupes and listen to that incredible silky smooth exhaust note under load.
ok take care everyone ✌️

Do you keep it garaged or on a public road?

If you have a chance to clean it in the near future a decent-quality car cover might be a good investment to keep it that way also stop the u/v light destroying your headlight lenses and paintwork.

yes funny you mention the headlight vs sun thing aswell as the sun is directly on the lights until the shadow of the building moves at a certain point in the day.
and this moon grey, im not sure if its supposed to be flat or it was originally finished in gloss...
but seems like its abit...fragile becuase of where it is flat, wants to go...flakey?

My garage is several hundred yards from my house, however just several yards from a pole that the next garage up used.
