Not sure if I've ever posted pics of this car. It's owned by a client I maintain a couple of cars for, and I get to tidy this up a few times a year for special occasions.
This weekend it's attending Goodwod Revival.
1 of 3 used in the Bond films  and only done 4500 miles from new 
No before pics as it'd only done 30 miles since I last cleaned it up for Goodwood Festival of Speed and it has a fair few coats of wax on it so it was just dusty really.
No use of pressure washer on this one! G101 tyres, wheels and arches, washed with Optimum No Rinse, polished with AS platinum and sealed with Dodo Red Mist. Tyres with AS rubber & vinyl dressing to leave a satin finish, chrome and wheels polished with Britemax 
So if you're down at the Revival this weekend, keep an eye out for it being driven hard around the track - it does get used properly when it's out of hiding lol.

Approximately the value of all 3 I posted last week
Thanks for the comments guys! Yes the portfolio is certainly starting to look a bit better these days - now need to find the time to show it on my site!

You must feel lucky!
Who takes care of your website, out of interest.
edit; There should be a question mark in there somewhere.

That is absolutely beautiful. But for a car as unbelievably well maintained as that, he should get new wheel weights.

Thanks for sharing Rich
Is it me or is there a bit of a kink in the O.S.F. tyre wall?

Cheers everyone!
I'm not sure re. tyre wall tbh - I think it's just the photo that makes it look like that - I didn't notice it in the flesh.
Having said that, it does get driven hard, so I guess there is a possibility? It's getting raced all this weekend so I hope not lol.
