washed mine today and a bird took a nice shi*t on the window! tomorrow it will be dirty again and looked like to wash for weeks :undecided:

If they gonna sh!t on it, better the window than the paintwork, I'm usually relieved if it hits a window  :grin:

A week after having a shiny car, mine is in a truly state disgusting inside and out  :cry:

Was told a couple of weeks ago that it had been brought forward to build week 50, so with Xmas shutdown at the ports prob get around 2nd week in jan  :smiley: got a private plate for it so not gonna leave it at the dealers for new reg, the wait would kill me haha, gone for

Very nice  :cool:   I wasn't convinced by the nappa when I saw it but subjective  :smiley:

Yeah that wait for new reg would be a killer for sure.  Plus you wouldn't want it sitting round at the dealers.

washed mine today and a bird took a nice shi*t on the window! tomorrow it will be dirty again and looked like to wash for weeks :undecided:

If they gonna sh!t on it, better the window than the paintwork, I'm usually relieved if it hits a window  :grin:

A week after having a shiny car, mine is in a truly state disgusting inside and out  :cry:

Booth never this colour again. absolutly ridiculous!  :grin:   back end that gets it the most. goes muddy within days!

Aw Chris, you lightweight   :grin:  this colour is not for the fainthearted, I like a challenge.  But you're right the rear end is the worst, and the bumper shelf is an absolute dirt magnet even in good weather.
