You can't beat Ebony Black for sheer shininess, especially indoor . Pity I didn't get to see it, but I'm looking forward to seeing in the daylight tomorrow morning

Two for auction, one for Philip Glenister, and one for me, I think ....

It is, and I'm lucky to have it, and it kind of made up for not being able to be there

I agree - a bit more "muscular" than the 20s, weirdly...but maybe that's just the film connection in my brain

I do feel very, very fortunate to have the full deck of (a) diamond-cut 20s, (b) W12 '18s and (c) 6 spoke Avus 18s. I'm not sure that I can think of anything else I need really?. Now, anyone need a set of 18" 9 spokes?
