Had an hour hooning this morning, then it was time for the infamous Crimp fettle, brushes up well for an olden
Anyway as promised, quite pleased with me little run around.

Very nice indeed.
Good to see a great unmolested example, right wheels no aerokit and very very sharp indeed.
Good for you Crimp you certainly know a good one when you see one.

I think what is amiss is that they should be the turbo emblem rather than the shield. Of course with the turbo pointing towards the valve. (Unless you prefer the shield!)

Nice to see the usual rusting locking wheels nuts having presumably received a little silver spray recently?

You certainly know how to find a good one, Crimpy. That has cleaned up brilliantly.

Very very clean - you must have hands like shoe leather after that session!

A gt2 or a 930 she may not be but all the better for that I'm sure - a super car that won't kill you that you can drive all year round - how weird!

Hey don't make those shields point at the valves buddy it's got to be the clearest sign of tragic mental illness this side of a boxster with "box" on the numberplate smile

When CG finished with my car it had that done, my son spotted it and rolled about laughing.

Turbo looks good BTW.
