Lovely Gav, the car is a credit to you! Subtle mods and gleaming paint set it apart.

Yes buddy, the handle was distorted, the window runner had been broken due to the buckle in the door, Metal was distorted around the lock.
Now i have a new door, it came with a new check strap to, So now i have a pukka door and functioning check strap lol.
Sounds daft but just opening and closing a pukka door makes the whole thing feel so much nicer.

I stir it, you should read some of your own posts. So you like Gavs car, but slate it for having a scuffed velour interior, and the wrong wheels, I'd hate to see your opinion on a car you don't like. Black is the hardest colour to keep clean, but looks the best when it is clean. :D

There 17's buddy, i liked them on the Red 850 i had but i dont like them on the black car. Wanna keep with 17's to dont think 850 look right with big wheels, unlike the later ph2's etc they have bigger arch's to suit and decent size brakes lol

all black??? yours looks flippin awesome mate, i wouldnt have another black car if i had a choice i like to polish but Black is such a pain in the ass, you think youve done a great job with the polish then the sun hits it and it can be smeary as fck if you dont do it right and use a decent polish and wax.
