You need to get out more.................in the Evora that is.

This is more like how it should look after a battle with the elements,  .

[Stuno1]

That is indeed a good effort! Spend 3 hours cleaning it and waxing it a couple of days ago! 

 

By by 'it' I mean my Evora ?

[Colin G]

I would do that Stu and it would be this clean -

Only to go out and play and bring it back like this -

Good old Scottish weather.

[TBD]

Spent more time washing and cleaning the car in the last three months than driving. In fact, I may have just been driving between home and the wash park.

Pussies!

+10 points for the filth

-1000 points for the parking

He almost got his centre exhausts lined up with the line!  Maybe he's a pilot and thought he was taxi-ing to the gate. I'd blame the guy with the ping pong bats....!  Doors to manual and cross check.

.........and whoever ran a bit of oily rag (or worse) over it in a less than half-hearted attempt to remove some of the grime should have both their hands cut off to prevent a recurrence, and then be made to remove each and every swirl mark they've created using only their tongue.

[C8RKH]

Dave I am sure there are some people out there who would pay for that sort of punishment!   Some weird folk about.

I only used my tongue, so no damage 

 

 

I chuckle at most of the detailing obsessed on here. The Shine On equivalent here in Hungary love me and I love them, what costs you 400+GBP in the UK costs me 100euro here. So I have it done 3-4 times a year. My evora has better wax protection on it than propably any car here. But, they are meant to be used and enjoyed and mine is 

[Colin G]

Jesus, that parking is even worse, it's upside ****ing down! 

[PaulCP]

Probably fitted with "sticky tyres"

Another one caught out by the iPhone orientation of pictures  ??

[C8RKH]

Bloody apple sh!te!!!   Yeah yeah yeah I'm biased and I know it....

Nice classic rolls in the background though too....

Down the road from me in Chelmsford. There is a piston head meet at the lodge in south woodham ferres every third Thursday of the month if you ever fancy it.

PH Essex, that's next Thursday?

[Stuno1]

It is indeed but I can't make this next week. I'll be there for the April meet ?

So just had a spare hour to give Scarlet a quick wash, the girl was looking a bit dirty.

She's be in at Craig Moncrieff's for a wee bit of fettling recently so thought I'd show off some of the work:

marine stainless mudguard brackets (spot them if you can);

paint calipers to red, new brake pads etc. in readiness for first track day on Saturday at Knockhill (of course the red calipers will make me faster!)

fit new front splitter from Thomas (@TBD on here) at last - the front splitter really goes well with the OEM Barge Boards - they just line up perfectly and it really adds a certain something to the front!

Other stuff done you can't see at all, but she's ready for the new year and ready for a good spanking!

Looking good, Andy.

I really should get my digit extracted and get my splitter fitted - it's not doing any good still sitting on the shelf in the garage.

[C8RKH]

Thanks Dave. It does go really well with the barge boards too and I'm sure you have those fitted.

[dbase]

Change the headunit in a Lotus, seems like a simple enough job......So glad i paid Ben at Lotus Silverstone to do it after seeing my car at the halfway stage 

The fit isn't as good as the older Parrot Asteroid Smarts in previous Evora(S) due to some specific metal supports designed for the OEM Alpine, plus the surround had to be cut to fit the slightly larger unit. I just couldn't live without TomTom + HD Traffic

 

[C8RKH]

Wow - I got mine changed in my original "old" Evora and it was as simple as anything without any need to take the dash apart and I had the non tech pack single DIN unit originally,replace by top of the range Alpine Double Din unit. I guess that's progress
