For your viewing pleasure
Cheers for making the effort Tony
Hopefully some of the new guys I met today will also see this ?

That red V12 7 series next to the red 8 used to be owned by the legend that is Jim Bowen.

I got stuck next to him on the M25 at Dartford , he was a passenger in a Bentley Turbo , we were stuck together for about an hour if my memory serves me right and he was looking really miserable.....it cheared me up

cool pics Wayne

mine are more of the same, except for my attempt at a panorama



Cheers for shaming me into cleaning my car properly, on the outside at least. It honestly has never looked so good this year.

Maybe get round to doing the engine bay oneday

Wayne's


Mine


Wayne was genuinely shocked when he saw me open my bonnet, as were all the small animals that ran for cover as they saw daylight for the first time in years .......

you forgot "luvly magik" and "look what ye wudda won - f*** me it's a speedboat"

One thing I've noticed Tony while looking at both engine bays side by side is it looks like your missing something, I've highlighted it on mine.

[wayneblackwell1000]

Infact there are a few things that look different

[TallTony]

I see them too. Perhaps a more learnerd chap will come along and point the exact differences out. I for one do not know what the missing bits do.

.... and we can put a stop to diss'ing a fellow northerner, who is considered a legend round these parts, thanks !

Good photos Wayne,You've certainly come on abit since!!!!!!! your car looks very clean as usuall, Tony hang your head in shame,that engine bay

The missing cable on TTs car , would that be the cruise control?

the white 8 looks superb, probably because of the rareity of 8's in white? but I recon it's the same on as listed for sale on eBay, still it would look uber cool with my 20" Alpinas on

Like Steve I too loved the 8 in white. Although the 20's may look better on a darker car

In fact they would look the Dogs danglies on your black car

[wayneblackwell1000]

Good thought Steve, could well be for cruise.

The owner of the white 8 (Tony) was thinking of selling but he's changed his mind.

Tony hang your head in shame,that engine bay

I'm a busy man

That said, I have been inspired to at least keep the outside of it clean after seeing the results that a 'quick detail' can achieve....

I will do the engine bay though and surprise you all one day, but only if it's for a competition. Seriously couldn't be @rsed otherwise

The missing cable is the cruise control cable.

The bottom picture is lacking headlight washers? It has a cap on the large washer bottle like the US models.
