Les!

Perhaps its a trick of the light, but the finish on the bonnet looks terrible!

Look at the bumper reflections in it... they are all lumpy and uneven.

Looks almost orange-peely.

It must be the light surely.... Still the colour looks good.

Perhaps its just been painted and still needs flatting and polishing

Because there was so many imperfections. Believe me it wouldn't have been done if it wasn't deemed necessary

Les you run Xpowers?

Going to any MG/Rover meets in Scotland?

Ive a solar red V8 saloon, best colour!

Would love to see yours someday.

As for the supercharger, well, its immense, but an accufab and Xpower back boxes with a decent air filter (OE housing of course, no silly cones or anything) does make the car feel a lot quicker than standard.

Still not up to the charger though, which is another world!!

I just wish it was £5k or that I could do it myself, which I could easily, but I have heard bad things about Jamsport doing the mapping for DIY'ers.

Do you have any pics of your 260?

Yeah somewhere, infact...

If you search on this forum with solar red V8 I think you will find it!

I don't run X Powers I've got Zeros. I got offered X Powers after I bought the other ones. They are almost impossible to get for Tourers. I'm tempted to put on straight pipes. I'm planning Drum Castle this Sunday the 3rd and maybe Grantown Motor Mania but work often gets in the way
