I quite liked Eygpt, I didn't do Cairo, Instead i flew down from Sharm el Sheik to Luxor

I quite like the valley of the kings and the gaurd with a UZI under his shirt asleep

I will not be sharing the pictures of me on said rent-a-camel and rent-a-horse in shirt and tie during my first visit to Cairo, add to that the rag they bought for my head and you had Gambba of Arabia......my customer didn't tell me where we were going until I was about to mount the stinking beast.

In the second photo I cant see any traces of the original scar. On the first photo Im not sure what I see - some lines, but maybe they are reflection. The lines dont match up with the scrape on the front light so I guess its reflection?
What repair method did you choose Nick Question In any case the results seem to be very good Thumbs Up

However I would still feel like lynching the blockhead that caused the damage Twisted Evil or maybe just kick his teeth in so he has to pay for his own repair Twisted Evil 2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.

the marks on the front wing are trails from a jet flying over

I opted for mobile bloke for £160, painted at his place in his garage/workshop, he sanded and resprayed the whole panels and re lacquered them totally aswell

I do have to pop back as some silicone has spotted in lacquer that leave tiny pits in it, only 6 on the whole job, and he instantly said what caused it and told me to pop back in a week onces it fully cured and he'll sort it, seemed genuinely gutted it had happens, and you can only seem them if you look very closely. Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis
