That looks lovely Matt, a credit to all the hard work. I promise I won't let on that it is a new car and not Slidy's skip.


Ha don't worry matey you'll be helping me soon!! Have you got your wheels back from the coaters yet?


Not even got the tyres off yet.

OK spent a bit of time on the VX yesterday.

Borrowed Cliffies 'Wets' (Cheers my friend) so I can send my wheels off to Max Powder for refurb but are going to look exaxtly the same so was nice to see what they will look like,.

Also tapped out the buggered Disc retaining screw and fitted new discs and pads.
