Well she's back off the road now only insured her for 2 weeks.
Didn't turn off on the key due to the stop solenoid not being wired correctly, I have wired it up so it turns on and off with the key.
The seats were looking a little black so was the exhaust
No before pictures but here are the afters

Cleaner than before but missed some parts
Love this new steam cleaner the Missis has bought to clean the house 
Recently moved house and the pug has somewhere safe to stay, and somewhere for me to work.

Was going to lower it a little more, the picture isn't great not got the right angle but that 20 deck of fags fits under with 10mm clearance if that facing upwards on a incline so going to leave it be
Think they may be a little marmite but everyone who has seen them loves the, including myself
Cheers

Painting wheels in bright colours is just attention seeking and IMO looks gay lol good call keeping them as they are, looks good.

Cheers kingy, got the seats from spike on here apparently there a £2500 optional extra when new there ph1 seats with the deeper bolsters
Yea I know what you mean chris don't want It in your face that's not the look I'm going for, silver is a bit plain though so I'm thinking painting them does graphite grey not 100% Set though ill have a play on photoshop
I don't let it get mucky I've got OCD with it, it's been in the garage since fcs and I've washed it once a week because it was getting dusty sad I know but meh!
Sat in the garage ATM with a few beers sealing the plates up on the turbo and sorting other off little jobs out for when I insure it and take it for its test next week
