Bliddy luvlee! I'd be a bit worried even driving that now; I'd be checking for stone chips on the bonnet every half a mile!

Re: BX in the bodyshop.
- shiny!Several layers of polish to protect it as much as possible from stone chips now is it? Not that much restoration was needed, but it does look beautiful.

Re: BX in the bodyshop.
Wow Vince, she is beautiful! I love white cars, they shine like no other colour can and they show off the contours of the car so much better than darker colours. If this was my car I would be wrapping it in cotton wool and driving it at 20mph to avoid stone chips! You must be so proud, and justly so.

Re: BX in the bodyshop.
Dear Tim.
Firstly Tim, no thank-you and Chris and his Mum and Dad for looking after her so well
for 18 years, and allowing us to buy her too
Secondly Tim, you are a man after my own heart, I love to see cars that are being
really well looked after. like yours are aswell Tim
One thing among many things I am really pleased with Andys hard work, is the colour
match on the white paint is absolutely spot on
Many Thanks Again Tim

Re: BX in the bodyshop.
Dear Paul.
Firstly Paul thank-you so much for all of your kindness and support
In one of the photos of the n/s/f kick panel you can just see a large tin of touch-up
for the white paint Paul.
The wheel trims are staying " put " in the boot at the moment until I am feeling brave
enough to put them on
I don,t drive very fast at all, these days Paul, I already check the bonnet for
stone chips Paul, just as she sits in the driveway I am going to now have to drive
her to the petrol station in reverse now Paul
This is the way I like my cars to be Paul, I can,t drive to far these days anyway, so
I like to get maximum enjoyment when I do drive them
Anyway thank-you again Paul and take care my friend
Vince.
