Before anyone moans, better outside pics will follow over the weekend once I've had a chance to wash it, but it rained biblically when I picked up the car

Been meaning to do this for a while, but finally managed to hook up with Tony Spears from Autoshine in Castleford, West Yorkshire.
Car was in for a 1 day minor correction (really didn't need much) and protection detail and finished with their proprietary sealant Titan.

Can't recommend these guys enough, car looked better than new when I picked it up and will hopefully be a lot easier to maintain.

If you're in that area and looking for a recommendation, then definitely give them a shout

looking great BC. Was that your Louts dropped in also?

[Beancounter_74]

No, a local Lotus dealer based around the corner.

Believe it was being prepped for sale. There is some more details of it on Autoshines FB page I think I saw posted up this week as they took some WIP photos.

I really wish I'd gone for your colour combo. Instead the wife told me not another grey car.

I like my EBII but I love MG & CR

[JustChris]

I agree MG suits the F31 look very well.

You also get to play 'undercover policeman' on motorways as people are never quite sure as they pass if I'm doing a sedate 70mph

No need for this to be in Off Topic!

Looks shiny

This is most fun and a game often played - you can also try touching the underside of your rear view mirror as you pull out behind them just to keep them guessing

lol. Much fun to be had with this game. Followed a Seat that nipped off smartish around a MK roundabout the other month & he slowed down considerably 1/2 way down the road when he spotted me in his mirrors. I rolled past chuckling to myself.

[Wills2]

It isn't fun, it's twatish behaviour gents!!!!!

Car looks lovely..

Especially if turn on the front led.

Improves road safety

Had a close one once when a lofty went to pull out in front of me at a roundabout - saw the dash cam and the adaptive camera. Then saw my t shirt with the Krav Maga logos and Union Jack - decided to brake sharpish

Car looks good.

But not with those grilles

[Beancounter_74]

At nighttime and from behind, no one sees the grilles.

Looking good Bc. Tony is going to my dealer to give mine a new car detail and paint protection before collection. I've been down to my dealer today to see my flat bottom alcantara & carbon M Performance steering wheel, and to add the M Performance alcantara & carbon dash kit, gear knob and gaiter, handbrake lever and gaiter, and door handles in carbon fibre.

[Daftasabrush]

And these days they wouldn't check their mirrors either

Nice one. You might just be the most M Performanced up Touring on here with that lot

Darker colours make even a touring look decent

Nah, I'm sure there are far better specced Tourers on here.

Happy Birthday... Hope your having a great day.
