If those running lights aren't OEM, please get rid of them.

Other than that, looks really nice and tidy smile, congrats!

Nah. I had six good years with the Cerbera. It was time to move on.

Very nice fella.... How does it compare to the C5 ? and is the Z51 just the handling and brake pack, or is there more to it. ?

Stiffer springs, shocks, up rated anti-roll bar. Short ratio diff,bigger brakes. Its been played with,with a HP Tuner. So some extra horses unleashed. Just need to get an exhaust cut out now like you and Swerni to release a bit more sound. Oh yeah. The C5 was good. But this is in a different league.

I like the taillight covers, they suit the car nicely. I agree with Doodles on the running lights though, they don't float my boat.

Hello mate. Yeah. I will be at war and peace with the Ferret. I still have it. I would never part with that or the Jeep.

My mistake then silly....... I'm not photographing it this year but might go down for the day, quite enjoyed it last year even though it was more work involved.

I'm surprised you had any camera equipment left after the dust from last year.
