Alright Phil,
That engine bay looks mighty fine. 8)
I do like mk3 saloons - that looks a very tidy example.
When are you due to blow the engine up on it? ;D

Nice one, wheels go really with car and so do orange repeaters!

for no apparent reason I really like the G40 engine bay with the airbox in place, makes it look a bit more complete if you know what i mean?
