Hello one and all.
Following a post on here a few weeks ago searching for an 04 VXR, Brian (aka The Muppet) kindly agreed to sell me his car. Well, after a couple of weeks driving her, sorting out a few stone chips and swirl marks then washing, machine polishing and waxing her I thought I would post some pictures up.
A few swirl marks still to get rid of from the passenger rear quarter but the DA wouldn't remove them and I am waiting on some new pads for the rotary
Only other thing left to do is extend the garge by 50cm to get the doors closed but thats next weekends job

My favourite too bud. When I sold my CV8 nearly 2 years ago Roger at Monkfish asked if I would get another. I told him that I would be back with an 04 VXR - preferably in black. I remember him wishing me luck in finding one

I have every intention too matey. Unfortunately I have had a bad year health wise so may not get to enjoy it anywhere near as long as I would like, but right now, I am as happy as a pig in the proverbial
well enjoy it as long as you can, in fact, come to the ring with me and roger 19th to 21st of Sept. Paint touch up pen/stick, wet sand and lots of polish.
I need to go over it a couple more times but so far I have managed to go from
to
I will get the whole bumper resprayed as I think it has received some paint in the past. It looks as if it was sprayed in damp conditions as the lacquer is cloudy. If you look at the first picture where my refelection is in the bumper it looks flat. I have wet sanded it and machine polised as much as I could but it is still flatter than the rest of the car.

That particular weekend mate I am on pendine sands camping in the dunes with some mates and drinking far too much
I will try and get along to as much stuff as I can though.
