You've definitely had the sponge out since we left Mr Wilks ! It's looking good.

Also its a credit to Paulgs1000, as the car performed admirably amongst a fleet of 300+ BHP Zeds and never looked short on either power or handling all weekend.

If anyone hasn't seen a Stratus Grey Zed in the flesh, then go and find one. Its beautiful in the sunlight.

Nope , its still sporting its hoon miles , cleaned it last Thursday before you all arrived , going to give it a once over tomorrow before Fridays chug home ,
As you rightly point out , its pretty special colour that really does change from grey - turquoise - blue with bronze & sometimes even a gold hue , pretty special & someones in for a treat when it goes to a new home :thumbsup:
