Spent a few hours waxing and polishing my car at the weekend, only for it to be covered in crap on the M1 on Sunday. It looked good for about a day, photos don't quite do it justice:

Very smart !! Just bought myself a tin of Meguires polish - fantastic stuff. A lot better than the Mer I used to use. My daughter wants to use it on her car now - well more correctly she wants ME to use it on her car now.

It was a limited edition of 25 built from 1990-1992? to mark the end of the production of the 350i, mine is number one.

They have the 3.9 litre NCK engine, the 350 body kit with all the special equipment of the other SEs made before 1990. Have full details at home.

Thanks, as far as I know it is the original paint. The polish and wax has really brought its proper colour back.

Yep 1 of 25 THATS a limited edition, my daughter has a ltd edition Fiat something sporting Micky Schmaker I think, 1 of 8586 FFS.....FFS .... FFS how is 1 in 8000 odd a ltd edition,

If I had a 350se I would want No26 just so I could explain about No13 everytime someone asked.

Only problem now is that you will have to get it dirty again.

It already is

As far as I know the only shorter run of wedges was the 450 SEAC (18 ?), excluding the SX's etc. I think they are the only limited edition run that TVR put the car's number on the sides and back.
