Something my dear Cubicle knows very little about.

Anyway Marcus, car is looking wonderful and I'm not usually a 'rat fan'

Well done Paul Dave and the guys at P R Services

Like Bootsy I'm not really a fan of the rat look but this has something about it beyond the "couldn't be arsed so waxed the rust and hoovered it" look. I think its great and is sure to be a hit with those in the know and those who don't ...well who gives a stuff!!
