    After my F355 spent a lonely December tucked away in the garage due to the snow, I got her out yesterday and took a few shots. If anyone can figure out how to fix the formatting it would be greatly appreciated :) Also how come IMG tags don't work?

    I took the random centre console shot as I had just fitted a hill engineering overlay as it had bubbled up badly. I also took disassembled the ashtray and painted it with plastikote as it had been chipped. I polished up the little flag badge with brasso too which has restored its lustre somewhat.

    Looks fantastic! Great pictures. Were the carbon interea shot by the way?
    Is that location East Kilbride by any chance? I lived in Blantire for a short spell and that location looka familier.

    Oops, must have forgotten to attach it! It's not actually carbon, just the standard black overlay.

    And close, it's actually Edinburgh.

    Centre console looks great. Clearly the shots of the car were taken in Edinburgh - you can tell by the higher class of painting on the garage doors! Quite like Blantyre though.......

    Real beauty! I can tell you that there is no way that I would be parking my car in a neighborhood that has graffiti like that here in the US.

    Thanks guys. The neighbourhood isn't actually that bad, it's a studenty area near the university and is just a quite lane with lots of garages ripe for all the art students to practice their "street art" in.

    Looks great Ross! :cool:

    You know, there are some great roads near Loch Lomond I'm sure your 355 would love. *hint hint* ;) :D

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    Yes Ross, I guessed that it was better than yer average graffiti street. And of course, those beautiful almost black cobble stones just set things off great. Very imaginative photography. Congrats on that and the beautiful 355!!

    I stay at the Lodge by Loch Lomond a couple of times a year. The roads are great in that area.

    They're definitely some good roads around there.

    I also really like going for a sit on the leather sofas in the conservatory at The Cruin on the shores of Loch Lomond. That's about 6 miles down the A82 from The Lodge.

    If you get a spare hour or two next time you're in the area, give me a yell and we'll say hi over a cup of coffee or something. :D

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    Indeed i will:)
    There was another great road i drove two years back, i dont know what its called. But the FOC area coordinator Gary drove it with me on the way to the Scottish Italian car meet at that great Statley home that Paul organised. A great road indeed.

    thanks guys! The sheilds were on the car when I bought it but they are just the cheap plastic type. Quite fancy upgrading them to metal/enamel ones but not sure which way to go on that.

    If anyone wants the bigger shots, they are on my Flickr here:
