After the car went to the factory for a respray following a defective paint job I've just got it back.

Full respray all the uptodate bits and it's looking superb. It's good to have the power back after the 4.0l courtesy Chim. New colour is Red Glow Pearl, looks fantastic and shouldn't fade/blemish like Rosso does with time.

Come on the Typhon.

Not armourfend but something underneath the paint apparently? Not exactly sure what. They have also put in the latest glove box and have also done something to the fill up bit and screwed on the silver disc instead of glue.

Just out of interest, how long did the factory take? I'm interested to know as mine goes in on Monday for the same sort of things.

Snakes - It took the factory for 2 weeks to do all the bits and bobs, it has practically had a full rebuild as they had to respray the whole thing.

Valhalla - Just had done what I mentioned above
