Its certainly well photographed!..I love the back drop..The only thing that put me off was the pics of the engine bay...Looks a bit neglected/Oxidised alloy and rusty bits..Especially under the servo...Bit heavy on price...Just my personal opinion....Ziga

Why would you put pinstripes on the back of the bootlid? ... and put a pic of a 400SE road test?

Im with you on the engine bay Zig, looks crap, why have such a smart looking wedge and go to all the trouble of the photos to then have such a poor, untidy generally looking unloved engine bay? i just dont get it.

Deffo want to change the colour when things improve.
Chap or chapess does have a knack of presenting although he under bonnet needs some blinging, get up there zig and elp em out!

Thing is mate its not just bling..To clean up the outsides of an engine is superficial, All of my blinging is a result of parts having to come off and either be replaced or re-fitted..So polishing them up or painting them is a secondary..For instance i only dressed the rocker covers up as the original cork gaskets were seeping oil a little..They were replaced with good quality rubber ones..The plenum was detailed as the fuel rail and fuel feeds from the copper feed from the pump all had new hose fitted..It gave me a chance to clean the inside of the plenum and the idle control valve and fit new gaskets..The trumpet base was also cleaned and the inside of the AFM..Ok i had a stainless steel expansion custom made but the original was starting to corrode on the outlets.

I had a little bit of rust under the servo as its one of those places that is vulnerable yet a pig to get to...I changed Delilahs due to that and it was quite corroded!..So there is a method to my blinging...
