I printed a sticker and added it to the front screen. As I always run with the economy screen I'm always asked how many MPG is that?

Does the display ever show 15 then?!!
Mine once showed 10 for a few minutes...
 
I dropped mine off this morning to have the rear lights covered with 'black flyeye tint' and when I arrived, I asked them to do some other areas too... Collected it and it looks amazing.

I'll add some photos to my project thread later, when I have more time :)

Waiting in anticipation @Claptrap! :p
 
Had the Elgrand for a week now, new battery and a new stereo fitted.

Replaced some rear bulbs that weren't working... Oh, and I've also washed it!

Other than playing around and learning how the seats move... I'm waiting on the V5C document then I can drive it :cool:
 
I did this and then got bored.... so started to take some pictures

KURO wax on wax off 8-1-18 (1).jpg


I liked the end result below but now it makes the tyres look shite... guess what I'll be doing tomorrow... Tyres ( and Bumpers & Skirting)... bugger, just noticed I missed a bit, feck!!!

Fewer swirls with every wash/wax, I'm almost starting to enjoy it.... NO NO NO, must resist, must sit in the chair in front of the TV and eat Pizza....

Very good thanks @Claptrap maybe slightly bumpier going from 55 to 50 profile but very good steering response from the Vredesteins!
Haha just noticed my winter wheels are not to dissimilar from yours except yours are in black! :p
Just found my wheels in black and polished/black!

Yup but I'm waiting until the warmer/longer days before I unleash the DA on it, I'm just really happy with the results from an hours work by hand, it's the best the Van has been since I've had it :)
