That's a Nikon FM by the looks of it, if you want to sell the whole lot can I have first refusal?

Needs a wash but here goes

Yep, brilliant bit of road, the Clio will p*ss it up at a ton all day, the BMW struggles to get over 80:D

Thought it might have been you mate, overtook you going down the windy bit on the other side, I was in the old 5 series with some knob in a blue Golf trying to get in my boot:rolleyes:

Wonder wheels is a really bad one to use. If there's any scratches in the laquer on your wheels this stuff starts eating away at them from inside. I do a lot of detailing in my spare time and find the best stuff to use is either Muc-off or Meguiars. My 10p worth;)
