That looks quite eerie Lee, Very cool tho. How strong were the winds? It blew you over by the looks of it
How is the 5 series that you painted holding up in those conditions?

Aren't you punishable / recieve a fine for having a dirty car out there? I know that that is the case in Oman and dubai - im sure i've heard that it also goes on in Bahrain!

yes i now wish my cab was not black, by the time you get to the front of the car the back is already dusty
No fines in Bahrain or dubai, but they do fine in Oman for a dirty car, but it realy must be quite bad, i have never heard of anyone actually being fined. Its actually the same in UK you can be prosecuted for having a car so dirty the licence plates are illegable - but i doubt anyone has ever been caught for this.
Shame really only one more month of convertable weather

then it goes in to summer storage

My parents almost received a fine in Oman for having a dirty car, we'd just driven a Shogun back in from the desert and we were on our way to the Sultanate Armed Forces Aqua Club and we got pulled over by an angry policeman. I'm not sure my parents should have found it so amusing.

the two tone is a factory fit, the car is from BMW Japan and allmost all cars fitted with the tech 2 kit have the dolphin grey kit, this one is sterling silver/dolphin grey. i am not too sure if i like it but its growing on me, but plans one day to paint the kit sterling.

I was unsure when I first saw the 2 tone sport but I must say I think it suits really well now.
