As most of you know i bought a VSX saloon about a month ago...since then muchos muchos cleaning has taken place and now the advertised "immaculate" car (which was far from immaculate) is now looking not far off......refurbed wheels make a massive difference in cleaning up the way the car looked...as does my private plate which is also now on (not shown in these pics though)

Very smart......white on red brick always goes well.......car isn't bad either.

No seriously that looks very tidy, like a lot of work has gone into that. Good job...

...fancy doing mine?

Very tidy - I wish mine looked like that.

Now to work on the Graffiti in the background.

Regards,
Simon

TBH, the graffiti took me longer than the car took to clean up

Cant wait to get it finished....the car that is

The Xantia looks very nice.

My first Activa was the same colour... Mauritius Blue Metallic. I had a can of paint mixed at Halfords for touching up, but never used it. Still got it in my garage.

Did you refurb the wheels yourself, or, how much did it cost to get them done ?

Cheers, Kev

I was really lucky with the wheels......

I won a set freshly refurbed off ebay. Then sold mine on here days later

Private plate isnt that one, its L4 VRH ....

Might not be the best of ideas to post your reg number on here, not with car cloning and the like going on...

What's with the Maltese Cross on the tyre valve cap!?

The Maltese Crosses are some valve caps that i had on my Passat estate..its kind of a VW thing but looked better than standard caps...

Reg posting?.......to be honest it doesnt bother me, if anyone wants to clone a car then they will find a way to do it.

Any parts place nowadays has a VRM data link into the DVLA and can find all the details they need.
