On saying that, its probably the alst event the car will see until its back with its new engine and gearbox etc - and if $$$$ permit interior as well

Cheers for the compliments guys - I've just taken it back from the panel shop with a bit more work done including deleting the aerial, shaving passenger door lock, colour coded door handles and flat fuel filler flap as well. They also resprayed the whole front end, I had the factory headlights reconditioned and a new front LE lip fitted (old one wasnt the greatest).

Interior is stock Calais SII at the moment, will be going full custom in the next 12-24 months
