Can't Beleive what happened to my car today

Woke up nice and early this morning as I had a little journey ahead of me

I had given the car a good wash and clean inside and out and had it looking like this

Thing went great, cruising the motorway getting a reasonable 34.9mpg at 70mph all be it in the rain but the journey was going nice


Spent a couple of hours at my destination having a pot of tea and chatting, and headed home hoping to miss most of the rush hour traffic,

The weather was nice and sunny, but got a little bit of rain in the end, this time I went a little faster, I always do on the homeward journey, but again was happy with the 33.9mpg

But was really happy with the trip, the car cruised great and coped with the fast lane hoggers nicely with a few flashes of the lights, eventually arriving home my car was still looking great, some might say even better than it started Laughing with all the road grime on it..... picture below of how it returned.....................................


.....

..... Shocked

Thanks for the kind words

no need to swap them to clear on this one, but needs a little LED fitting to make the interior a little whiter Cool

I have a set of clear lenses not needed anymore though which I'll pop in the for sale section with a few other stuff before I pop them on eBay Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis
