Great Christmas present.  Also sounds like you've been busy with he rain in your area.  Hopefully you haven't had any flooding at home.

No flooding but know a few that have been put out their houses for 3 months , not good over Xmas.

Very nice, and a great colour choice! I went for the silver roof rails but otherwise our cars could be twins.
I've got skinny 18" wheels and winter tyres fitted now. The rears look ridiculously lost under those rear arches - but function over form.  :-[

They'll probably ensure that we have no snow in Aberdeenshire now..  :)

Cheers,
Keith

Very nice colour. Looks spot on. I've just bought a set of winters from Germany but looking at the temperature and weather today I'm thinking I'm not going to end up using them...lol

I have been bidding on a few set of alloys on e-bay but no luck yet.  Given the temps here in Aberdeen - it was 10.5 deg thismorning at 8am when i left my house - but will see what the weather is like over the next couple of months......

Keep a look out on eBay.de tbh as they have loads and loads and at decent prices too. Just need to keep firing off messages asking whether they will ship to the UK and in most circumstances they do.

But the temp is what I'm finding here in the Midlands too. 12 degrees today it was.
