Don't be scared of the rain, imagine how good the beadage would be...

See you there.

I finally got around to finding a quiet spot to take some photos. It's been 4 weeks since the detail and the car is still looking fresh. I'm coming up to 10 years of ownership in January!

You could use those shots in a new car brochure! Still looks fantastic.

Thanks for the nice comments! It looks better in photos but still very happy with it.
 
We are at that time of year to review my fuel economy for 2018. I have now logged each fill up for the last 3 years.
 
My 2018 average L/100km reduced to 9.21 L/100km from 9.24 L/100km in 2017. I participated in 1 track session which was my worst fuel economy of the year at 21.12 L/100km. If I remove the track day I'm back to 8.97 L/100km which was the same as last year without the track sessions.
 
My best economy for 2018 was recorded at 7.00 L/100km.
 
Total travel distance travelled in 2018 was 16389.1km, reduction of 1246.2km on 2017.
 
Most expensive $ per L was on the 16-10-2018 and was at $1.839 which was $0.15 up on 2017. Cheapest 24-12-18 at $1.359. The average cost of petrol for me was $1.561 which was an increase of $0.095 from the 2017 average.
 
I drove 1246.2km less, had a reduction in petrol consumption by 139.36L but only reduced my petrol costs by $56.77 on last year.

Inspired by RdS's clean AW11. Quick photoshop with the stock rims changed to white.

Have had mine for "gulp" 25 years...

And now my friend, the first rule of Italian driving. Whatsa behind me (breaks rear view mirror off and tosses it behind him), is not important!

Feels like an age away but the first 10 years went quick.

Had this AW11 for 4 years previous to the SW20..
