whats the plans for the car next then mate?

None, really.

I've been whitling away at all the jobs over the past couple of years. I plan to fit a Long Life stainless steel exhaust in the next few weeks and I may replace the front indicators/fogs as they are quite badly stonechipped and let the front down a little. Mechanically it's all ship shape and the interior is fine. I have no intention to carry out any mods.

Misssion pretty much accomplished

shes a beauty all right, I had a quote to sort out parking dents, said a whole side respray would be needed, £1200 !!! needless to say I didn't get it done !! the whole car for 2 grand though, to that standard, well worth it

Wow that looks fantastic! Hmm, mines the same colour, really needs a respray, and I happen to live a few miles away from Marsh Mills Ind. estate...

The problem is if my car had paint that good I would be genuinely worried to use it as a daily driver. Everyday I get more stonechips from driving to work in Paignton, and even if I park in a totally remote and deserted spot in the supermarket some plank always decides they want to park next to me.

Thanks,k9huff.

I think I may have seen your car on the A38 and going through Totnes a couple of times

If I was using mine as a daily driver, I wouldn't have had the work done as it wasn't in bad shape before. It only comes out in nice weather and I don't do many miles in it so for me it was worth it. Having said that, I'm still paranoid every time I take it out but I guess that will wear off as the stone chips mount up

k9 dont worry about stone chips thats what touch ups are for

Sorry to bring up an old thread but wow your car looks amazing in those pictures AlanW. (Search spurred by your signature!)
