lol. At first glance I thought I saw dirty sills. Then I realised it was the road surface reflected perfectly in the lower sills. Nice job.

And a credit to you too, Roger, for keeping her so well for 14+ years!

Wow, that looks simply stunning, and like the two tone paint finish......that surely isn't a factory applied colour scheme though??

Nope, the original car was chatsworth bronze before the repainting.

No, as Trikey said, originally Chstsworth. It was resprayed by the previous owner (LimoRog) to the Raven Black/Bacchus Duotone. This was a factory paint option, but none (that we know of) were made.

The colour used on the bottom is Jaguar Morocco Red.
