stuff all this washing /polishing malarky----Drive it!!!!!!!! 
Paint t matt black---any panel you need in future-colour match no problem

Must be my OCD on overdrive with a darker colour dirt shows up after 1 day!!!! after washing 

I was like that with the one and only Black car i owned , it was great when clean but showed every spec of dust  I like silver it hides the dirt 

Thats one of the best things about silver 

[Mr.OmegaMan]

 

The silver one had only just been detailed... Socking the difference in how one run can do that to the wheels/tyres... OCD ain't too happy lol

Bet there's not much difference in economy between the 2

Bet there's not much difference in economy between the 2 

Very little in it... The 3.2 is more of a effortless glide when coming out of junctions, The 2.2 howls more nothing wrong with that mind.. But cruising on a duel carriageway or motorway there isn't much difference at all both fairly quiet. It's just handy to have the extra power sometimes which could get you out of a sticky situation which the 3.2 has done many times already  ..

Quick Update:

Time to touch up some of the stone chips etc... Got a very good matching touch up paint from Paints4u much much better than the VX / GM touch up paint's...

The pictures below are how it looked unfortunately I forgot to take close up pictures so had to crop these out of other pictures... As you can see the patch is a darker blue that's the GM/VX stuff completely useless match, and yes correct paint code and everything  ..





Will update with the after look pictures once finished

The plastic seems to fade so an exact colour match is quite hard

Finished the job just need to take some pic's, the Panints4u paint is a good match hardly noticeable, Bumper isn't bad enough to justify taking off and doing the whole thing.

This is how she looked some 5 or so years ago

She smells lovely and fresh inside now after the bomb and AutoGlym Spray airfresh, new pollen filter and the odd whiff of the gliptone leather stuff etc... Lovely 

Would mine have indirect night lighting i wonder, What does it look like can't find any pic's  ?
