It has almost been a year since we got the Seventy Five and it has been a great car so far. The auto gearbox oil was changed recently, which made a big improvement to the smoothness of the gear changes. Furthermore an oil cooler hose and gearbox mount needed replacement. As for the rest, no major repairs were needed and it is still a joy to drive the car.

A picture of the car with its Crown winter wheels taken today:

I can agree with you there, The Crowns I have are really pitted badly and are in need of some TLC, will wait till summer, to take em off and do a proper clean.

I have fitted new centre caps to the Serpent alloys last week and thought this was a good excuse to take some new pictures:






No mods done lately and no repairs needed. It is still a great car to drive (and to look at).
