Enjoy.
If anyone is interested in what paintwork protection it has on, it's G|Techniq C2 - which is one of the most advanced polymer sealants on the market today. Gives a razor sharp finish, and lots of clarity. As you can see by the lights shining on it, the pearlescent effect is cool. Will look great in the sun, and it lasts for up to 8 months

I concur. Some folks on here think this is the modern day equivelant of the GT! Does look more like a 1960's Fiat 500 IMO!
As Clarkson said, "it has the floor pan of a Panda, and engine from a Punto, and a shape from the 60's"

Looks nice Matt. Im going to get my new BMW done next week.
Cheers mate
Post the pics up in the detailing section when it's been done. I only put these in here because I cba doing a write up with load of before/after shots! Plus don't wanna sound like a broken record as it's only really me who's posted anything of substance in there for now (til the weather pics up at least). Since you're paying to have the BMW detailed, remember to check out the safe wash guide I wrote, protect your investment
I'm busy at the moment, purposefully left this weekend gone free to get mine done, and I was go-karting sunday so ruled out any major work. Next couple of weeks I have a few to do, and more potentials on the horizon. Things are looking good.
Id have a 500 in black, only saddos and c**ts dont like 500s.
I was thinking, if I were to get another, I'd get a red one with the white graphic set. Probably get it Essesse'd aswell, for the wheels - white option of course!!
Still, I'm happy with the pearl white beast. May opt for a Monza exhaust system for it next and an Angel remap. Would see 175hp from that, 4 pipes out of the back and with the exhaust being a dual mode, it's quiet around town then rips when you open the taps!
Really? £700 for a backbox that will rust after 6 months
You not interested or looked into a TMC box? Warranty issues with a remap if anything goes wrong?
Does look nice, very clean!
The Angel remap is considered to be the best available, and it's those guys who did the map for the cup series race cars apparently. Don't know much about the exhausts other than they look and sound great, but like you say, are pricey. Haven't read any issues of them rusting? And they are dealer approved, so can't see there being any problems. Doesn't void the warranty either. The remap is also undetectable, so they claim.
I still feel like they look like they came out of a kinder egg, maybe an abarth kinder egg but still...
Not for me thanks
