It’s irrelevant now anyway after speaking to Oliver.

Some of my best ideas become irrelevant after speaking to my wife. In fact, in some cases, it transpires that they were irrelevant beforehand as well.

Congratulations! I presume you mean the dark grey Centennial with 18,000 miles on it?

 

[Oliver6796]

Thanks . That’s the one. Won’t see it for a week as it has its bits,bobs and ceramic coating done. Soooo excited. Sleepless nights ahead.

Well done! That's an extremely lovely looking car. The ceramic coating will make it even more of a joy to wash. You'll be amazed how the dirt just falls off. Will you get that oh-so-vulnerable front bumper PPF wrapped as well?

Thanks. Got them to throw the ceramic in as the paint was a bit flat (assuming due to the car cover the previous owner purchased) Will look into PPF, heard about it a lot but not seen any costs ?

Getting the lower front bumper of my Vantage done was £300. Dub Customs did it. 3k miles later it's still free of stone chips, which for a part of the car just 100m above the ground is pretty good, I reckon. It's probably a bit more expensive than getting a bigger area re-painted, but at least this way my OCD doesn't get all agitated about the stone chips.

Did you adjust the springs to make her sit that high?

 

[D Walker]

100m above ground, do you use s lift to get in it then...

The Stradale cetennial at TH was actually listed in Pistonheads as a private sale. I even spoke to the owner, bad timing as I only just bough mine. Interesting there were no other interests at the time, maybe this shows that it is easier to sell these cars through a dealer - you get warranty & finance...etc. I also sold my 2009 GTS via TH as well.

Congratulations Oliver, lovely looking car, love the colour! Interesting how you mentioned the colour looked flat ? It looks great in the photos! Looking forward to see it in the next meet!

Sounds like that’s the way to go , cheers for the heads up.

Thanks. TBH I initially glanced over as I wasn’t sure of the dealer. I think when the value goes up then it’s worth putting it to a dealer to sell, partly the offer of finance although no reason why you couldn’t get finance direct. Mainly just some reassurance.

When I say flat I mean the lacquer has gone flat. Lost a lot of shine. A good detail , or in this case a ceramic will sort it out. Colour itself is lush. Cheers

Couldn’t agree more, such a beautiful colour! What do you think of these centennial wheels with red accents?
