My gaffer caught the front splitter of his McLaren 675LT on a stone poking out the ground after some heavy duty rain on his driveway. Insurance claim is £14K. Front splitter from Mcca is £9K alone. Blimey. Expensive toys, expensive bills....
Init, OEM CF is an absolute fortune for those 'kind of cars' £9k splitter, £5k 'work to be done'. Only downside of those aero parts is the sheer fortune to replace! If you got the money and all... go for it! :thumbsup:

Good job too. Looks like his is peeling away.

The irony of this pic being I was sat in my new car that I'd picked up not 20mins prior; a Mondeo estate in that same exact shade of Grandpa Grey! :lol:

I have one of those! Suits the Mondeo estate very well :)
I am a Grandpa, and my (other) car is grey.

Shoulda swung by my work... Did you pickup from Bristol Street/Ford Birmingham?



Also, totally kristian, the plates so close too!!!!


[MENTION=15533]slowhand99[/MENTION] you're only a grandpa in the mondeo, when you get in the Mustang you are a young man, a real professional race car driver knowing the limits of your car and knowing the lack of limits of the paint code ;)!

Tempest in Lichfield.

It was a purchase of necessity rather than choice but I have to say I think the colour works very well.

Just a shame I couldn't find the 163bhp Titanium X version. :frusty: As I said, time was of the essence so couldn't wait for one to pop up.

Not a fan of the rear privacy glass though; makes those blindspot checks almost impossible!

Jesus christ, you were on my doorstep!!! Lichfield is like 10minutes from my village (mind you, I was in the centre of birmingham today!)

Tempest were the guys who helped with my underseal as well, did all my advise etc on it.
