thought it was about time I put some pics in here;

Looking good Gos

I see you have shortened your gear stick - did you do it yourself? How difficult was it?

I was having a chat to Marie & Steve last weekend about the gear sticks in the new LE500's - they are longer than in the TF's. They queried this with MG and it is apparently because Chinese women have short arms and the longer gear stick is easier for them - no joke..!!

cheers paul, gobsmacked about the chinese gear stick :shake:

actually mate my gearstick hasnt been shortened it looks that way and feels that way coz the knob is bored almost to the tip so it screws down further, I love it.

I will see if I can find out where I got it.

Looking stunning hun! You've done some excellent mods! I'm not generally a chrome fan generally I can't deny it goes beautifully with black!

Always loved that pic under the blossom tree as well!
