First wash of 2007 planned tomorrow (probably in a hungover state). The last time was the 17th Dec and i've driven all of about 2 miles since. Disgraceful behaviour I know - got me feeling guilty now so I may have to get back into mode before I hit the Stella tonight

I nearly bought that colour but it must have been an overcast day as it looked dull and dark, yet yours looks terrific & such a refreshing change from all the silvers and blacks. For me the all black interior was too much, but could have been persuaded if there had been a two tone interior. Just imagine, dark blue carpet and door panels.

My Belina Black was delivered in November and have only washed it 4 times, and as expected despite copious water and wool washing mits, swirl marks from the start.
But so what, for a change this toy unlike those in the past it not a garage queen as its such a blast to drive, and dirty black doesnt 'arf look evil.

BTW I'm fantasing about Honda coming up with a dark red metallic with black/red two tone interior, or a less sharp blue than Bermuda with a two tone interior.

Nice garage!
Heh Thanks!

I find it a constant battle to keep it tidy though - does everybody else have the same problem, or is it just me?!

Thanks mate!

I'm in two minds about tyre paint - does it *really* make it look better or does it just make it look a bit tacky? - You know, all black and shiny...

I have double which is currently cluttered with all sorts of crap mainly because I am doing a house rennovation and partly because my brother parks his elise in it.

Will have to tidy it up, I can hardly Get out of the car. Keep putting it off because I hate spiders.

Nice car BTW.
