Picked up the new daily
Thought i would share as its all picked up.
looking for someone to come and do a machine polish really to get rid of some swirls and to seal it for a while.
i also want to try and protect the wheels a bit.
Dont know what people charge though.
One pic at the mo.

Shame the Bentley has gone. I asked you on your previous pics thread if you could give us a real world review on the car and how it performed. You never replied last time
Would be great to hear from a 'normal' person about how the ownership was
RR colour is awesome!

Similar but it doesn't oscillate as well as spin, your roof will be hard to do

I'm not too bothered about the roof, the bonnet under petrol garage light is terrible. Needs a good polish and wax.

Thanks everyone. As soon as I saw it I knew I wanted it in the colour combo, had to be 22s and I had the sidesteps fitted too.

I normally charge around 225-280 for a car that size depending on what the paint is like in current state . I'm only about a 5 min drive from the car park your parked at.

Lovely car the Sport, hope it's a diesel? I had a new supercharged one in 2006, ran it for 5 years, got quite costly in the end getting an average of 11 to the gallon! Chopped it for a new diesel Q7 in 2011.

yes guys its diesel. 3.0TDV6
ill put some more pics up when i get a chance.
Its got cream inside which really was my ideal colour combo, it was exactly what i was looking for.
Black just bores me to death and in my area white range rovers are just finished now really haha.
thanks for all the great comments. im still in love with it. even after a lorry reversed into the front corner yesterday in london!

Lovely motor, as has been said, few hundred to detail it but would be money well spent on a car like that, will feel like brand new and that colour is one that shows swirls etc, so with them gone it will pop!

could have been a lot worse, but annoying as it really is mint, luckily someone spotted lorry and left a note so all getting sorted!
ordered new arch protector too which is common on these so fitted that today, most of the damage will tCut out but im going to leave it as need to get estimate etc.
was a big lorry too and i did park right next to a corner but it was a proper bay, the driver i think thought he had got away with it.
he said "mate i am so sorry, i couldn't believe out of all of them i hit that one! lovely motor mate" which soon calmed me down, was an accident after all.
