I know this is a bit of a marmite car because of the wrap, and i'm bound to get the usual comments about me posting about my dads cars, but fuck it. I love it!

Prefer it to the green/blue/white of the normal RS, they look a lot more agressive.

Not sure how well that wrap will age in terms of condition

Nice car though - these 35k because there is no way i would spend that on one

It's probably high at the front as it's still got transport blocks in the suspension

hard to say how i feel about the wrap, seeing something in reallife is totally different to a few internet photos.

the mean look suits the cars styling though

I'll be surprised if it does near 2000 miles in a year. I think thats all the white RS did this year.

Yeah, it'll be getting the treatment before my dad gets to play. I'm sure there will be a write up in a few weeks time.

Swiss Vax have an Opaque range of waxes specifically designed for matt/satin finishes.

Seems pointless buying a car like that then want it detailed
