Superb looking car, Simon. Hats off to you!


(edit: Oops - I forgot I'd already complimented the car. I must really like it!)

Congrats man, looks lovely!
I never realised you were back on these shores, I only get on here occasionally these days!

Hiya Benny and it's great to hear from you. Your graphite beauty is a still an object of desire and hope you're keeping well. It's funny but I was watching a few episodes of Porridge last night and I thought about you, as you posted about the exterior to 'Slade Prison' and its location being in your neck of the woods.

Thank you, Hans. Nice to see you again and hope you're keeping well. And as you've complimented her twice I'll thank you again for your kind words.

Yes indeedy, St Albans registry office, about five minutes walk from where I'm sat.

Good morning, fellas. Had a few things added (and removed) when I took her to my trusted local mechanics last week. Obviously the kickplates look fabulous and the new Kenwood stereo is rather nice especially as the backlight almost matches the colour of the car's dials. I also asked them to take off the after-market HID fittings as to be honest, the lights were pretty abysmal. The upgraded Ring bulbs have been fitted and they've made a world of difference. I'd also noticed that the passenger's side air deflector was loose so that was fixed as well. Hope you like the upgrades.

Nice little updates. And yes, agreed that stereo matches quite well!

Kick plates are a nice addition, not cheap these days.

Thanks, nalla and you're right as I paid an awful lot of money for them. The kickplates were a pretty penny themselves but added to that was the cost of shipping them from the Netherlands out to Malaysia which is where I was living at the time. However, I'm absolutely thrilled with them and I see them as an investment. Oh and yes, they also look fantastic every time I get in and out.

They do finish a Prelude nicely.

Good little jobs ticked off
