Default First run out for the Sapph this year :) *A little bufty update 20/05/2012* lol

If you've read my build thread, you'll know that i took the car for some paintwork to be done in feb and they basically wrecked the car , so i then took it somewhere else to be put right , today was it's first run out since last october, so i threw some polish at it yesterday and put the interior back in today, using it for a mates wedding next weekend so been frantically tring to get it ready lol. Pleased to say it didn't miss a beat!!

Anyway, hope you like!!

Haha, cheers Tarren

I did take loads more actually , bit of a weird day to be taking pics of a white car though tbh cos the sun just glares off it, that's why i went in that covered car park lol

Yeah, so good to have it back in one piece, and relatively quiet now the rear seats are back in lol, the noise from the fuel pumps and gearbox with no rear seats in was unbelievable lol
