Arek has signed up I think? I'm sure he did an intro post. He's definitely in the FB group.

Edit - here he is, before he bought Sean's :) http://forum.a8parts.co.uk/showthread.php?t=15310

MJ, You beat me to it.
I'm in Chepstow for a meeting. Tomorrow morning quick dash to Bridgewater then back home via Southport.

I can update things a little as Arek and myself took a spirited drive to the Haynes Motor Museum in Sparkford, Somerset a couple of weekends ago to attend one of their monthly breakfast meets :D+++

That's a stunning S8, I've always liked that car. Are those grey 20" FE's Neil?

Your D2 is also exceptional though I still prefer it fitted with the Kahn alloys, I think they suited the body shape better than those Bentley wheels. Each to their own of course, we're all different

Good stuff! Glad to see it's still about the place! Lovely looking thing.

Obviously not a D2 though, but that isn't it's fault! :ROFL:

Me too. I remember when it was first up for sale by the previous owner, I really wanted it! Very happy with mine now though :D

I believe the paint job on them is referred to as hyper black. The set I had on it weren't quite as dark.

They were refinished by platinum Alloys in Swindon and I believe the colour is "dark shadow chrome"

I still have the Kahn Wheels and they may well see the light of day again at.some point - I like them both! The Bentley's are much lighter wheels as they are forged and you do notice that when driving on them though +++

Ooh this makes me want one! Must resist!

Out of interest, is there anyone here running a D2 and a D3 S8? Sounds like a very classy way to greet bankruptcy!
