No I didn't, I bought it on Ebay a couple of months ago, but it may well have been on a MKIV

Saw a steel grey in the flesh the other day, and have to say it looked rather s****!

obviously not quite as impressive & gleaming as Vindaloo's, but nice,

F*ck! have to say that is impressive Vindaloo, all power to your elbow mate! 169144-ok.gif

Totally ashamed of mine now, still hav'nt had the courage to extract the Meguiars Tech wax from the plastic carrier bag yet, and start reading the instructions.............give it time.........I will shame myself into action by looking at such examples... ROLLEY~14.GIF
