    Fascinating, what were the tyres you had on it?

    Difference in width or just materials construction?

    I ***ume it was mainly the construction, although they do look like they have a slightly larger contact area as well.

    She's got her new boots on and running like a champ. A break in the weather at the weekend gave me chance to creep out of the garage and out into the open air, so I took a few vanity shots to share with you. To say I'm chuffed with how this turned out is an understatement!

    That little car turned out stellar, and it is by far the quickest known body shop turnaround time ever recorded.

    Nice work, -Abone.
