Default Hello folks, haven't posted on here in a while so a bit of an update on the Mak

Well, as you know I like to get me cars top notch and I've spent a few quid on just that with the Tommi, it was very clean to begin with but the paint had fade and swirls, so, I took it a long to PWpro in Mansfield for a full professional detail, wheels refurbed, all new door seals because the sun had faded them, new stripe kit etc etc, you get the jist. Lol.

So, here's A LOT of pics of progress and how it now stands, probably the cleanest car I've owned just 42k miles too.


Pete.





Swirls on paint and general fade.























Now finished, no swirls and such depth to the shine




























Underside is just stunning.











Some I took Monday....















Thanks for looking!!!

One of my mates has made a few million by collecting super cars that he predicted to go up in value....he has been tipping the Tommi Mak as a car to own long term for good value.

Looks great!

Yes they're rising fast now especially the Red, there were only 212 made worldwide to start with and only 100 something plus can now be tracked down so a VERY exclusive car now.

I'm not a huge Evo fan generally, but the VI is just a stunning looking car, and a red Mak is the pick of the bunch.

Can't be many around as good as this one either, looks immaculate.

Too expensive now Andy, I obviously haven't looked at prices of them for a while because of owning this, but I see 3drs are now 25-35k or more for good ones

What are good Sapph prices now?? 15-20?

Welcome back Pete.
Car looks great.
Amazing you say its the cleanest you've owned as your cars are always superb mate

Mate of mine has just got an Evo in red, not a Mak tho, but apparently it is really well known in the Evo circles
