I picked my new car up yesterday, it's had a few minor mods already carried out - White wheels, St bumper, illuminated gear knob (to compliment ambient lighting - and it really does!). I also had a few of the factory boxes ticked - full leather interior, dress up kit, etc

She's a fiesta titanium x 125 and my first ever brand new car - been waiting a while for her - nearly 4 months!

    You know, I like all the chrome bits tbbh, in fact I've even bought some more chromed bits too add on - like number plate surround for the rear

    Lowering though, I'm in two minds about that one..

    A bit of advice for the numberplate surrounds, take them off & clean behind them regularly to prevent a built up of gunk. I had some on a previous car & when I took them off to sell the car there was a large build up of thick black gunk (& was a pain to shift too).

    Chrome looks nice. Overall a nice car!

    Sorry but hate the wheels, reminded me of a badly modded 20 year old Corsa, sorry.

    Enjoy!

    Try panther black then! Drove to uni today, lot of country roads. My car looked immaculate before I left due to it being a few days old, it now looks like it has been driven through a rally stage

    I'm waiting for a nice day with it and I'll 'armour' up the wheels with sealant, worked well on the last car, so I don't see this one being any different, using a better recommended sealant this time around though, last time took an hour per wheel to seal! :o

    White for the bodywork is quite easy to keep clean, like silver it has to be utterly filthy before it shows up as dirty I found, especially with the last one x

    My husbands car (parked in background) is black and is an utter nightmare to keep clean, it can look filthy within hours of being washed and waxed :o

    Last time round I used poorboys pink wheel sealant, this time around I'm going to use gtechniq c5 wheel armour (with poorboys on top). Made cleaning them a piece of p

    Need a nice long clear day to do it though, as said last time with 5spoke zetec alloys it took an hour per wheel to buff - though I think I might've put it on a bit thick tbbh, this time around it's going to be even longer I swear, spesh with 12 spokes :o
