That white is immensely revealing of the quality of the design - really lovely.

You wouldn't think it, but it really shows everything off nicely. I'll just have to make do with my white 1/18 scale one!

About £70 each I think Will, collected. I am going to pick up one when I get back from a trip to Wales. I can offer courier services.

If Brian Primmer isn't going to CXM, let me know and I'll collect some trims for you.

I think my mileage is still below 25k. She is nicely run in now and as fast as a 2.1 is going to be! The etoile wheels do look great on it. Big bonus is the michelins are legal and the wheels don't leak!
