I bought my car to be my "work" car, a week later I got laid-off. Yours looks in nice shape, fix the little things and it'll be nice to you. Not a fan of the blue interior though, but maybe it looks better up close. I love these cars with right hand drive.

I like it - clean..your camera takes interesting pics - the effects make it look almost like a model.

Good to see you still cleaning it up. And +1 on changing the color of the fogs. I like the blue interior though.

Given that you are from Norway, I would think the word SUMMER would be in quotes
