Still very much enjoying it! :D

Did some more sight seeing in the Highlands, this time went to the Clava Cairns & stopped for a picture beside the Culloden Viaduct.
Kizashi is in dire need of a wash though!

Just a "universal" set from ebay, cut it ourselves so they'd fit nicely.

Recently clicked over the 37,000 mile mark which means I've done just over 20,000 miles since picking the car up 2 & a half years ago!

Here is two pictures from my recent drive, Uig in Skye to Glasgow.
Skye really earned it's name of Misty Isle that day, rest of the drive was stunning as well.
Stopped here in beside Loch Cluanie but could have stopped another hundred times. In Skye itself, above Loch Garry, Invergarry, Glencoe, Loch Lomond. Everything was beautiful that day!

Looking good Craig, even the background.
Only recently turned 14000 miles.

Few more spins around the North of Scotland before a little makeover!

When I first got this car I was terrible with parking at a kerbside.
Much bigger car than before so I ended up scuffing the alloys...........a lot.
So after 2/3 years they gradually got worse & paint started to peel off of them. Got a nice quote to refurbish them but I've always wanted Black Alloys, I did like the standard alloys the car came with so I just asked the garage to refurb & paint the black, two birds one stone!

I'm delighted with the way they look in Black, changes the look of the car nicely too BUT it's not done yet.
I want to change the chrome, it's too shiny & just doesn't flow now, so that'll be next on the agenda I think,

Looks good with the black rims.

Did you also paint the door trims a darker colour ?
