wow man that looks bloody lovely! make sure to put a couple layers of painters tape everywhere so it doesn't get scratched during re assembly!

I had a series 1 but don't remember seeing any in that beautiful colour. Yours could be the only one!

Cheers Ian, can’t believe how there’s not more about in tornado silver it’s stunning when it’s fresh. The paint job it had before was terrible.

You can upload a video using the "Attachments" facility when posting, but it's easier (and takes less space on our hosting service) if you host the video on Youtube (or elsewhere) and provide a link in your post.
The forum supports YouTube, so that's easiest and provides a thumbnail for readers to stream the video directly, rather than having to download your video file to view it locally, if you choose to upload it as an attachment.
