Regarding The Doc's finish I have just bought a 4.2 with Black and Black. In the sale I bought a SUPARGARD finish with the car for £200 quid (It was £349) it includes leather protection as well. Does any one think this is a good deal and has anybody got it on there cars?? About to buy my dreams

I have had it on both my RRS's, makes it easy clean but dont see that it protects car very much, still get those little scratches, chips etc, did not help keep cream leather clean on previous, hard to tell on new one, dont know if other memers have different thoughts  purple people eater

My opinion is colour coding is the way to go, chrome is sooo tacky theses days. Since when is sticking lots of shiny bits on a good idea?

Colour coding all the way.....I even have the sat nav aerial coded too...

Well that is good news

Java all the way.

muffd did you get yours done locally? Or did you do it yourself? Looking for somewhere near Glasgow that might do it for a reasonable price before going down the DIY route.

Hi bulletProofBomb

My mate did the colour coding at his body shop in Glasgow.

He also has a 4x4 Hire company in Edinburgh, so if any members of the Forum ever visit Scotland and arrive by air and you want to hire a FFRR, a Disco, a Sport or a Defender, he's yer man. http://www.4x4hirescotland.co.uk/sister.html

Ewan's claim to fame is he is the first Scotsman to complete the Dakar on a motorcycle (last years Dakar and the first ever in South America).

Muff If you see a bandwagon - it's too late.....

I must confess for chrome.
Colour-coded are quickly getting all sort of scratches…

Chrome is for people who think it's cool to have their teeth gold plated!..... Nuff said
