Looks great, love a car kept as mint as that. Nearly as shiny as mine
As others said, are you actually part of the cruise control team?
What mods have you got lined up for the car then?

nice car! I'd love to get my bay as clean as that! O_O
You've done a great job caring for it and as everyone said, it's very tasteful!

Just noticed, you had it wrote at the bottom!
Puh leaaaaase get a slight smaller UK Font plate to fit the recess, it would look epically amazingly cool!
Mods sound good, the suspension is definately a good call aswell!
Also just noticed the gain you had from the exhaust and K&N which is a good result!

Fancyplates, You choose the custom size you want.
A 3/4 doesnt get pulled 99% of the time, and the 206 is more like a 9/10 sized plate but looks amazing. I tried a 3/4 on my 206, but was too small for the recess.
They arent legal, however a plate custom made to fit the 206 recess would NOT be picked on by the police!

Thanks again people
Alan, I wire brushed it, and with a wire brush drill attachment. Then polished it up with Autosol (this on it's own looked nice)
Then i gave it a single thin layer of high temp engine lacquer, which really brings it up to how it should look
