Looks great as ever!

We've a young sparrow that frequents our front garden and he really doesn't like his own reflection in my rear n/s window. He sits on the rubber seal staring at himself then flies up and down the glass furiously pecking at his reflection. Been doing it most days now for a couple of weeks. Whilst it is great fun to watch, the downside is the amount of small bird calling cards on my door....

I have a similar sparrow problem, less so now. I used to park backwards in against a hedge when I worked in an office - the back of my Discovery 4 (with a very large and very dark tinted hatch glass) was covered in bird crap.
Washed and waxed mine over the weekend and it fairly gleams now.

If you wear a tweed jacket maybe someone from a shooting club will help you out with the sparrow problems  :wink:

I’m actually in a shooting club (no tweed jacket though), but shooting sparrows is a bit mean (and potentially illegal unless you have a valid reason)

Unbolted the front seats and moved them out off the way so as to give the carpets a proper vacuum especially around the seat rails.

The revo badges look exceptional!

Had the wheels refurbished at last, went for dark grey as there are too many Black wheels about.

Quality, better than just decals. Once it’s had its paint correction polish tomorrow and ceramic coating Thursday I can’t wait to see on the boot.

The side blades look just like GTI badges, not sure about changing those yet.
