    JLR all electric by 2025

    DIY calliper painting or professional?

    Hi, I used these guys and bought their kit and painted the rears myself. https://www.bcs-automotive.co.uk/ I was lazy and did not remove the calipers but you can get to all the visible surfaces to clean and paint. Results were great and still look great a year on. My only warning is order the...

    Union Jack

    Union flag sticker received and installed, found it easier to remove spoiler but still managed a few little air bubbles. It was this or just the word "BYE" that I fancied as the spoiler deployed.
