PMG work their magic again.

After the respray I wanted the best possible protection so dropped the car to @big_pete for paint correction followed by ceramic coating, including wheels and new exhaust tips, in G-Techniq Crystal Serum Ultra.

Cracking job!!! You must be pleased as punch with a finish like that!

How's the ceramic coating holding up? Water still beading off well?

Coating is still good as the day it was done. Car is a joy to clean. It got a good wash today following yesterdays trip !

Another years ticket !

Last MOT was 2019 due to extensions, Covid etc.
Shockingly since then I have only done an average of 720 miles per year!!

Few positive comments from MOT centre staff which is always nice.

Only realised when I came in here to post that I’ve had this for 4 years past in July !

Great day out yesterday at the Causeway Coast Mini event in Portrush. Weather was brilliant and was nice to give the car a decent run up the coast road.

145 miles in total and it just ticked over 67k !

Beautiful car. I had a good look round it yesterday, along with the three generations of the GP. Those JCW Recaro seats are just great!

Great turnout again for this event, and the weather was perfect.

Out of the garage for some fresh air.

Another years MOT. Grand total of 254 miles since last year majority of that was the Causeway Mini run and a quick blast along the coast to Glenarm this morning to blow the cobwebs off.

Now she’s taxed I’ll have to get out to a few more runs.
