RS200 20, 3 Years Driving, 2 Years NCB, 3 Points £1700 I'm not the registered owner (company car) which hiked it up a hundred or so, for whatever reason. Hopefully i wont have my pants pulled down quite so far next year..

Hello, I work at Parley Cross Garage up at parley cross (Inbetween the Airport and Ferndown). Drive up fairmile or barrack road everyday for work. You're welcome to have a look some time, probably be towards the new year now as i'm working a lot at the moment, but we can arrange something...

That would have been me! Along Barrack Road? Great looking car, enjoy!

Common as muck. Fortunately mines usually dirty so its more a of a slate grey. I'm hoping when i inevitably cross paths with another storm grey no by-standers will notice the colour match and we can go our seperate ways without any awkward glares.. Enjoy the colour, and the car!

South of France and the Pyrenees have so much to offer, well worth the trip. The roads are spectacular, and even on the seemingly poverty striken Spanish side the roads are in fantastic condition. Ha! I think i suffer from quite the opposite, it's an expensive condition to say the least...

Well at the moment i'm going for the 'wheels covered in brake dust' anthracite effect, does that count? I don't think its gone 24 hours without being driven since i got it, and i doubt it will for a while, its such a useable car its hard to find an excuse to drive anything else. Yeah...

The N-152 (Some may have heard of it as the 'Collada de Tosas' mountain pass), just across the Spanish Border, from Queixans to Ribes De Freser, is incredible. Best road i have ever driven, 28km or so of constant flowing corners taking you up to 1700m above sea level. The last 4 shots are...

So atlast, i have found 5 minutes to upload some photos of my last 2 road trips, although i will not have all the photos up at once. I'm planning to do a full write up with journey details at some point (similar to my previous Wales thread), however it'll be pretty time consuming so i'll be...

So the journey begins tomorrow morning. Starting my 10 day euro tour, through Belgium, France, Andorra and maybe a little bit of Spain weather dependant (roads arounds Ribes/Ripoll seem interesting). Will be posting a full report sometime when i get back.

Here's a shot a took after a quick clean and polish on the weekend. Hit a badger last week, fortunately only tore some of the arch liner out. Poor bugger ran out about 10ft in front of me, by time i saw it it was already going under the wheels. Couple more pictures to put up later...

Thanks for the comments guys, will try get some new pictures for you all this weekend. Bit hectic at the moment, our new garage opens in 3 weeks so not a lot of free time...

It is annoying close isnt it! I will get a 'CL10' plate when i have enough surplus cash to justify it, a little cheesy but its a nice touch. And the 5th picture is at the summit of the Great Orme, Llanduno. Well spotted.

It's merely a disclaimer for those of that nature, if i was ever worried what people thought i wouldn't have got Storm Grey, a primer-coloured car is hardly flash. Personally i would have preferred speedlines, regardless of what others thought, however now i've grown so attached to the car...

Some of you may have seen my Clio on other forums, but this forum seems like a good place so i'll start an updated thread here. In all my threads theres always a few with the whole 'why didnt you get speedlines' etc, so i'll explain the situation; I had wanted speedlines etc, but that...
