nice, virginian. I'm having mine underbody waxed after the summer and paint reconditioning soon as its lived out for the last two years in the sun. the black is starting to fade so i'm going to catch it sooner rather than later.

Is the Black version a solid colour or is it a base colour with lacquer? If its a solid Black , you could bring the colour back with a machine polish....loverly : )

Base colour with lacquer. However, there's a bodyshop down the road who reckons it'll cost £200 to be re lacquered. Well worth it I think.
