Folks,

Finally some pics - it stopped raining for a little while yesterday and I got the opportunity to do these. Since I got the car; there has not been one good weekend to wax, polish or detail this beauty so apologies to those of you that keep such pristine rides when you see that mine could do with a little work .

Hope you like my colour scheme though With all the cool rides I've seen on this site, I think only my seats might be unique?

The Biz Jim, thanks for sharing.

The raised centre armrest looks fine, perfect for comfort on long journeys.

I LOVE them! I've always wanted to put a burgundy interior in my car.
