Well I thought I would try out my new Photobucket skills (yes I have only just dicovered it.and my IT ineptness amazes even me sometimes) and what better way than posting a few phots of the old girl. Hope you like.

Looks great.

Shame it's a turbo and therefore all-show-and-no-go, eh? A nice S2 would have so much more .... verve! [:)]


Oli.

P.S. That wing decal looks the biz. I have to say, I really like that.

Do you know when I first bought the car I hated it!! And I mean proper hated it but I have really mellowed to it and have to admit I kind of like it too now. And yes I think the D90s look the biz and are just about the perfect wheel for this car. 16" just seems so right too.
 
Very nice Rob! Are you meeting Alasdair to get some parts when you took the pics?[:D]

No mate they were taken at work. We are both railwaymen (guess that's another affliction) although I am in the business of fixing them and not driving them [:)]
 
Looks fantastic!
Pity you couldn't get to Rutland, would have shown the dark side an alternative!

Car looks great! Paintwork is lovely, keep it waxed with a decent carnuba wax to prevent it going pink!

I notice the sill skirts and trim at the bottom of the wing has been removed, good idea as these encourage rust on the turbo/ S2.

I was under the impression the rust starts from the inside.

The plastic trim does seem to be responsible for S2 and turbo front wings being worse than Lux or S for corrosion. I imagine it's likely the sill trim could trap dirt and block the drains, accelerating sill corrosion inside.

Looks in fantastic condition Rob. Is that a recent respray?

Don't know how old the paint job is as I have have only had the car six months. I have done a lot to her though. I can only assume it is fairly new. I keep it happy with a liberal dosing of carnuba wax every week or two. Looks mega when it rains [:)]

Yes I took some B/W ones too looks really good. Took a really good one in the wing mirror in B/W showing off her nice fat bum. I think that's been done before though so I didn't post it.

The car had skirts on when I got it. I took them off because they really were in awful condition and were spoiling the car. I am in two minds whether to replace them or not. Queue mandatory PCGB debate [:D]
