Got my favourite pic already. 
Now, Sterling grey Z4 2.2 with cup holders, stubby aerial and sport seats. Roadsters ‘cause they’re great with the roof down.
Ford Anglia, Red Sprite, a few MG midgets, MGB Roadster and yellow Ford Capri, all gone many years now.

Daz W has captured Ruby Black at it's best - I think I only saw mine look like that 3 or 4 times!
Coupes because stunning!

Thanks for the comment. I bought the car in November and have been waiting very impatiently to give her a good seeing to. Around 24 hours in total to get her looking so fruity. After completely stripping back it exposed far more swirls than I'd anticipated but I got there in the end. Still a couple of defects but I'll get to those in the next week or two

In the two years I had my Ruby Black one I only ever saw it shine like that a few times, and never managed to get a photo of it looking like that. With the right light Ruby Black looks stunning!
