What a machine. Definitely one of my dream cars to have. You definitely made the right choice. But f**k me that's like the grand canyon.

Epic car. Ultimate do it all machine!

Is there something untoward here? Or just angles.

Looks how the arches start to flare to me? Looks normal. I may be wrong

I think it's just a perfectly placed reflection making it look like bit of a dint.

Absolutely heroic motor!

I thought you were talking about the panel gap between the wing and headlight where it meets the bonnet

Tyres collected and dropped off to my mates wheel refurb place.

Wheels just out the acid bath.

Hoping the wheel is salvageable, but not looking good. Tyre fitter had to use 135g of counter weights. See what’s what in the next day or two.

Wheels acid bathed, shotblasted, black powder primered, diamond cut, Audi Rotor Grey paint applied, one last cut and 3 coats of satin lacquer to be applied tomorrow. New Michelin PS4S to be fitted then we’re back on the road. 😍

Turns out you were correct mate and I’m glad you pointed this out to me. I took it to a mates bodyshop and they confirmed it’s had some light panel damage in the past and repaired poorly, but to the untrained eye, it woulddve been very difficult to see. I received a quote to get the car 100% and the garage I bought it from has already paid the invoice. Hopefully get the car back next week at some point.

Thanks again for pointing this out, dude. 🤙🏼

Wow I wasn’t sure whether to say something but glad I did now! Great result getting it sorted and the cost covered.
