I don't name it, I don't want to wash it, I don't care if I get crap MPG, it's a sports car for driving!

On a lovely Saturday I was faced with the option of cleaning and polishing my car or going for a drive.


Obviously I chose the drive.
The car is filthy with bug splat, and washer fluid (which seems to be a milk like product-

)


Best road of the day is betwen Keysoe and Thurleigh. (North Beds)


Theres a really annoying yellow light that keeps flashing in the speedo on that road.

I actually didn't drive mine today, but I have been averaging about 4-500 miles a week.

Today I was mostly painting calipers

[Sean_C]

That looks nice.

Did you just take the wheel off and paint them.


The forum needs a new step by step guides heading.

Oh no it doesn't .....

 

[keelerad]

Yep, it's the painting equivalent of a bucket of fairy and a sponge, a pot of Halfords 300c engine enamel and a small paintbrush. Wouldn't pass muster with Senna and the detailers but they have already been painted properly, this is just some colour on top.

Some people don't like em but they can leave there's boring Silver

Getting the wheel nuts back on...



actually I chocked the wheels at the other end with blocks of wood and after jacking they had done their job but were too tight to pull out by hand
