Clean with Fresh Wheels!
 
7 Attachment(s)
Just had the wheels & wheel caps powder coated at a rather decent price of £180 for the set. Unfortunately, a wheel needed a weld repair so this added another £40 on top. So whilst she is looking her best, I thought I'd snap a few pics in a local car park and share them for those that like a rare red D2 +++

Still my favourite colour combo. Anyone know of an S8 D2 being sold in that colour?
Nope. Thought not. :o
Tap me on the shoulder if you do.

Rolls-Royce Derby Moor Lane car park? Nice job, did you use someone local to Derby for the powder coating?

Nice touch with the mats. +++

Looks great! +++ That's a great price for all four wheels.

Looks lovely! I bet Turbo Tony will be along shortly to be jealous of your numberplate...

You see, that's the great thing about this forum, we can all have different opinions+++ personally I think the illegally spaced plate spoils the otherwise lovely car, and lets face it, these are classics and in that red its stunning.:love:

However as said above that is a great price for the wheels and I too love the nice touch with the mats:D

Regardless of spacing, it's a good plate if your name is Tony, mine isn't and the plate isn't for me, but I can see it's appeal to others. Personally I don't care for plates at all, although mine came with a (legally) spaced plate anyway.

As with all things, if it makes you (the owner) happy then kudos to you, enjoy

Very Nice. Love that colour +++:D

Gorgeous +++

I'm not the big fan of this sort of spacing as it only attracts attention from the coppers and there is a lot of them in my parts, but I do like (and what I did on my new plate) double space between V10 and three letters of my name, that's as far as I will go.

Once again, lovely car mate and they do look nice in red.
