Default Another compliment for the 75

I’ve spent two weekends cleaning the 75 and both times someone has walked up the drive to admire and compliment him

I got a compliment (I think) from a young’un attending the diesel pump last week.
“Don’t see many of those 2 colour cars. It’s like an auld car from the movies. Cool!” 🙄
Well, I thought it was nice of him to say so anyway.😬

Nice one, Sir! My moonstone tourer gets quite a few comments. It changes colour depending on the light - could be green, gold, mushroom. At first I really disliked the colour but have grown to love it, especially when it's freshly polished.

I hated the colour when I first bought it but love it now. I too am amazed at how the colour changes under certain light conditions, it is almost a Monogram lol

I was in llanbryde last week to collect a bookshelf, but didnt pass your place. It fitted nicely on the roof of my Tourer which looks as good as yours, except more dirt, rust spots and scrapes on the front bumper where I keep knocking our garden gates when parking!!
