Very nice your 'hobby' certain shows through those pictures, very well executed  Seems like every one else lives near much more fun roads than me  Probably best really, off to the tyre centre this morning after a badly judged wet corner  |

Something 'happened' mid corner, not sure if it was mud, under steer or the more likely driver error, and I caught the front near side wheel on a bank. few light scratches on the alloy (hope they'll just polish out) but it forced a load of grit and grass roots between the tyre and wheel. £16 to have it taken off stripped, cleaned and all put back together. Good as new (other than scratches) and the tracking is still spot on. More drama than crisis

i did something similar but on ice and badly scuffed the rim of the wheel at only two weeks old. I think i might open a war wound topic soon lol because mine is getting paint chipped to death as well on the bonet plus some tw*t scuffed the paint with shopping in asda. Im not a happy bunny lol

I'm a little concerned about the flat front on the A500, which is likely to take a hammering from chips at some point, as are the plastic skirts underneath. Protection film might well be a good idea.
