Love the alloys nice difference in colours, i personally would have had them lighter than the bodywork to stand out a tad more, but it lloks clean enough.

Friday was not a good day:




Bonnet flew up whilst i was doing about 75 in fast lane, i ended up hitting the central reservation and managed to make it over onto the hard shoulder without hitting anybody else. Windscreen is cracked. Need new bonnet and mirror. Roof, door and wing are dented.
