My suggestion would be to keep going the direction you are heading and just go a little further towards the café racer style.
Your wheels, numbers etc are in that ballpark and then it’s a case of lashing on a pastel (I think a green, grey or blue) in either a diy wrap or spray can/roller delivery.
It should tidy it up, bring a bit of cohesion to it and crucially not make you feel precious about it.

"when I park as far from the entrance of the shop as I can in the Bentley, when I come back to it, it's always got a car parked on either side of it. Why is this?" Easy, people like me think that the expensive car owner is likely to be more careful about opening their doors in case they damage them against my car!  |

I think you fellas might be right regarding the numbers. I keep looking at them and thinking they look wrong. I think the problem is they're too white. I need to grubby them up a bit I think to help them blend in a bit more.

All I need to do is just remove the 'R' leaving just the bit that says 'ANGER' on the sides, this would be perfect for her Worshipfulness Do it! |

Just hold on to it until Christmas time so you can fold a Christmas tree in to the back of it.
..and use it to survive the winter without heating.

How about letting the bentley go, too and swap it for some modern-ish truck like the vw anorak or that benz pickup?

I must admit I quite like the look of the amarok, but they seem to be going for a fortune at the moment, just looking on fleabay there's not one within 100 miles that's advertised for less than I paid for the Bentley, and I'm not spending that amount of money on a ten year old pick up

Love the bridge pic.
Car looks pretty cool now, and quite unique the way it has come out.

Love the bridge pic. Car looks pretty cool now, and quite unique the way it has come out. Thanks grizz . I think I need a few more stickers on it yet, I want to go along the prozac route a little.  Although perhaps not quite so many stickers. I've just got to get around to buying a few more. |
