Washed it
Feeling bored about 15.30 hrs so made a rash decision to wash my Landie ... it's first proper wash since the Eastnor show back in August! Shocked

Well an hour later and i must say it looks stunning Cool I really ought to wash it more often, other than a few minor 'laning' marks on the paint, it comes up like a new motor. Bow down Guns and Landrovers .... anything else is irrelevant.

Yep standard calipers, merely painted red when drilled/slotted discs were fitted [looks smarter] Laughing

Chris Very Happy ... he was out from 09.30 cleaning his motor - and still on it when i finished mine [about 16.45] ... i swear he had a toothbrush in the alloy wheels ! Rolling with laughter

Pete .. made those myself about 8 years ago ... well i say myself - i supplied the measurement and the welders at work made them for me. That luxury gone now ... no longer have a local workshop Crying or Very sad Guns and Landrovers .... anything else is irrelevant.
