Thanks mate, They really are a nice piece of kit. Even the other half, who doesn’t do cars likes it........I think she’s secretly waiting for me to go back to work so she can have a little play on her own.

That is a nice piece of carbon fiber to dress up an already amazing looking engine compartment. I will be after one of those for a late xmas present for myself !

Thanks

It was a spare I had and I've never been taken by the poor quality of the inspection badges

Think they should cone with that level of bling as standard ( the way the B5 and B7 RS4's did)

Put it to bed for a couple of weeks while I go skiing frown

Love the quality of the classic additions indoor cover, although it doesn't quite go all the way over the front bumper - I think the size of the mirrors and stalks are stopping it coming further forward. I also put it on a trickle charger, the magnetic adapter on the rear bumper thankfully this really easy and saves removing any trim whilst hunting for the battery as with previous cars.

Unfortunately for me my garage door spring broke on Christmas Eve and that had left me with my Vantage locked inside until it’s replaced next week at the earliest.

Hi, that cant be the correct item for the car, mine goes well over the front and rear bumpers and tucks underneath

Yes so does mine and it’s a classic additions one and fits perfectly
It looks to me like you have one designed for the previous model as it looks like yours in a new model

Are they both on new models that yours are fitting all round? I did specify that it was a new model when I ordered (over the phone).

I'll email them with a picture and see what they say.

Cheers

Just need to get some spacers for the rear wheels - make a big difference to how the car looks.
