Ok, not my current car but a 2006 MSport that came with 20'' wheels as per the 4.8is.  The car turned out to be a real lemon and got ride of it after a year of hassle.  That said I loved the colour and with a Nappa java grey interior it was a great place to be.

Seen here with very small 17'' winter wheels.

Le Mans blue, with Beige Nappa leather interior. (Never hurts to have an extra picture thread :P)
Where's the sunshine when you need it.. Le Mans blue looks so much better in sunlight :)

I like the blue painted body kit on that Raj.. My brother runs a wheel restoration outfit, and has all the kit for doing bodywork too... Perhaps I should look into having the body kit smoothed and painted up.. I like that a lot :)

Subtle, yet still looking fairly OEM. Sweet ride!

Tbh I don't like dressing the tyres that much. I do for shows, etc but I actually like the tyres to look more natural... ;)
