You`d appreciate it a lot more if you seen it in the flesh,upholstery quality is first class,IIRC he has a friend who retrims leather sofas for a living and he done it for him

Aha, my old car strikes again. I bought the red one off Danny and it was L3 COS, I had my own private plate so I sold L3 COS to Jason for his car (which was Arty's old car). For people that go to the shows my old car is now owned by Mark and looks like this.
