Facelift I had an itch I had to scratch....

Um, think I fall in to the 'never launched' category too...… keep saying to myself that I need to give it a go, but never actually go find a spot to do it #fail

For the record, '67 plate, just sneaked past 25k miles today....

...… I'll get my coat :whistle2:


Oh, and nice car OP :)

One launch in my own. 100 in the s3 loaner:wink:
Not many places around here I can get away with a hard launch and not much point. I’m more the kind that likes thrashing around the B roads not straight line traffic light Grand Prix .

So, a quick wash today as weather not ideal. Sadly the sun gods didn’t come out for the photos.

Phenomenal responsiveness and acceleration. Big grin.

Only had it 24 hours but have already had 2 cases of cars at traffic lights goading for a race. I just let them do their thing and didn’t rise to the bait.

So, a recent trip to @FranA3 for minor paint correction and MaxProtect coating.

Fantastic job, and Fran's magic has really increased colour depth & sunlight pop (and as a past Sepang owner, that is praise indeed) - I have mirrors at home that don't reflect as well as this finish. Great guy and passionate about his work. Thanks Fran!

@JohnM100 Was there much of an issue with stone chips on the bonnet and front wings or do they also become less prominent after this kind of work by @FranA3 ?

Now I just need to keep it looking like that. Have been cleaning my own cars for years but starting with a clean slate means if any marks appear, it’s on me - no pressure then.......

@OCDaveS3 - It was relatively free of stone chips, and the few that were there do seem toned down.
