Ah looks like I can't use that as I don't have an air brush gun. Wouldn't make sense to buy one just for this. I could see this working well though 2014 FF Autobiography 5.0 SC

2 new rear height sensors fitted this evening

Tried to fit a wheel bearing to the drivers side front.
But couldn't even get the calliper bracket off both 16mm seized.
Snapped a six sided Britool socket in the process.

Collected the 5.0 SC ...... to me, from me - Happy Birthday says I  5.0 supercharged autobiography

4.6 HSET Turbo Lpg mapped
Gone-Defender 90 200tdi
Gone - 3.9 Sprintex supercharged LPG
Gone - 3.9 Vogue LPG

in for rear tints today , went 20% as I didn't want to look like a van lol

Took mine in for rear main oil leak and cam cover oil leak to be fixed. More like oil 'weeps' than full-on leaks, but they don't resolve themselves. Expensive.

Got a new diesel Evoque as a courtesy car. Horrible thing.

I had a slow coolant leak and it was not sounding as smooth as normal, a metallic noise that just shouldn't have been there.

Took a gamble on the water pump and bought one after work and fitted it tonight.

Silky smooth again! Porsche 911 (996)

Not got a LR of any kind at the mo, and got itchy feet.

Took the Fattie to our local farm shop to buy a shoulder of pork for Sunday (if you live around Southampton I cannot recommend Westlands Farm highly enough). All fascinating, I know; ANYWAY my point was these things really shift when you give them some welly, no? - this is a 4.4 TDV8. Yes, it's not a sports car but I haven't really opened the taps until today. There was no smoke or anything which is a good sign too. Would love to give the car a proper clean but it will not stop raining! Oh well I'm stuck in the kitchen anyway!

I've read that the aircon compressor/condenser fan whine might be because the system was low on gas(?).

So I've just been and had an aircon purge and re-gas this morning.

Will have to listen carefully to assess whether this has lessened the whining noise when aircon button is lit.

Washed it at the Shell Jet Wash with my 1-year-old boy.

Sat him in the driver's seat to play whilst I wiped down the drips & door seals ( Left the rear door open incase he locked me out)

Wiped the front door seals, then the rear door and shut it.... locked me out

Spencer push the button!!! Spencer do the keys!!! You can door the keys Spencer!!

Phone in the car.

Go into Petrol stations

Can't get hold of the boss

Sent Grandma to collect spare keys from SWMBO.

He opens the door just as Grandma arrives

Me: gave it a clean and finished off with a coat of Bilt Hamber.

Stornaway Grey is such a great colour. And with that deep wax shine
