I'm a fan of the door defenders,the first time i have seen such items.
My one fear is they would be just be lifted themselves,or i'd have a bunch looking at them wondering what the?

I've been using them for many years now, used to be a resident where I live who I swear would ding my car through lack of grey matter, opening the their door oblivious to my precious lude. There is a cable which goes inside the car which prevents casual theft so to speak. I stash them in the boot and if I am out and about and parked somewhere tight I pop them on. Usually I head to the quietest spot in a car park, or the very top of a multi storey to try and avoid collecting dents.

I did that last week with my Lude, parked in the quietest corner of a car park with 10 spaces either side of my car. Guess what, when I got back some knucklehead had parked right next to me :evil:

I'd say that a green 99+ is pretty rare! Are the seats heated? if so that is maybe only the 3rd set of heated leather I have seen (inc my set ;))

Noticed a spot on the alloys where the paint has falked off, will need to get sorted.

Thought I'd give the car a quick clean then take it for a wee run in stationary Sunday traffic!

Few pictures, (any excuse!)

Just noticed the two honda civics in the background of one shot.

So nothing much to report, just an excuse to post a few pictures, hope to fit the new kick plates soon. Ordered replacement LED lights for interior and boot.

I really ought to take the car somewhere more photogenic!!!

And need to sort out the red top!
