Polaris is the best colour... yours is probably the best ive even seen in 4 years ive had mine.

The imperial is nice, not a patch on your polaris one though. You a very very lucky man. Please keep it standard.


What width tyres are you running on the imperial though, look a little stretched?

Hope the family are keeping well, and that pooch. Congratulations on a baby boy by the way! Time flies.

Cheers, about what I thought maybe a bit less!
How reliable is it, people seem to think when a car has done no miles like this that things perish, seize etc, is that the case?
