Brilliant Dave - it's amazing what a good wash can do. I swear by Autoglym bumper gel too!

There's a few white R8s in the club now - it would be good to get them in a line up at a show some time!

Cheers Paul, it would be nice to line them up I agree. I better get working on the starting problem! Fuel first, then check the relay and ignition parts. I'm off to Gaydon today so it'll have to wait until tomorrow :)

I wonder if there are enough of various colours around to arrange them as 'pixels' of a colour image when viewed from a helicopter/balloon/drone?
The Rover badge logo perhaps?

I am not really into shows but if there is a call for an all white line up I will try and make it

So finally after just over 2 weeks of ownership I got to spend a little bit of time on the 416 :)

I now have all 4 fan speeds working, new undamaged number plates front and rear and it's had a thorough clean and polish.

I have a set of 5 lattice alloys similar to pauls which would look lovely on that :angel
