Hi there, and just a quick question - why do you girls always name your cars? And is my other half the only who that doesn't?

Paint the calipers pink, but leave the drums black. They are ugly things and you want to keep them hidden

Nice little car. Good to see a female doing a bit of mechanical work too.
Don't forget to change your plates before the MOT
Seb, my car is named. Crystal. Only because all my rears are crystals.

Never named any of my cars.. apart from my first, I always referred to that as Sh!ite or hunk load of cr@p!

Looks good, although not sure why you'd spend money on an illegal plate, when it could have been spent on a proper mod, but welcome to info anyway!!
