I agree with Clan ,love the gold and it's a shame most car makers seem to have dropped gold from their colour choices.

after a week with the xc90 it feels so much more refined and comfortable to drive than my old discovery, so far getting 27.8mpg

looking to get my parrot hands free and a tow bar fitted this week. then might look at a remap





heres one of my toy, a 51 reg suzuki jimny winch challenge truck

currently doing a diesel engine conversion ready for the next challenge series.
