Looks good. Very tidy paintwork, has it had a respray?

Photos never seem to do Astor justice, such a good shine and cool metallic flake up close and in person.

I've said it in the pugfest thread, I'll say it again; this car looks faptastic Tongue

Love the 3-wheel pic above too!! Big Grin

I also need to pick your brains; I've just bought a set of 17" Speedline DeCorse Turinis; I'm currently running Yokohama AVS Sportlines in 205/40/17, and I'm pretty sure they're rubbing the arches at the back... http://306oc.co.uk/forum/thread-3740-page-9.html

Do yours do the same, or have you rolled/modified your rear arches, or are you running different size tyres to me?

I dont know what offset they are but yes, depends what tyres im running, Parada spec 2's have a squarer sidewall which catches the arches. They used to rub real bad with anyone in the back but only just at the very back of the wheel arch lip, so i just bent it up slighly with my wheel brace (on the side of the road) and it has been fine ever since except for over hump back bridges.

The wheel arch liners are a different story though
