Put on 12 & 15mm spacers to the belvedere alloys and re-fitted mudflaps again, due to the added sling the spacers will cause.

3 degree weather, heater on max but sunroof open  :wink: sounds like how I used to drive the old work transit, heating was a yes or no answer so it was window down weather in the heart of winter  :laugh:

Red with black is always a winner, add in a few shiny highlights and it’s unbeatable.  :cool:
