And why all the snootiness about that car? It looked very clean and cared for.
There is hardly any wood and what is there could be removed and stained or whatever you want to do with it. Wrap it? :rolleyes:
As for the cream leather interior, at least it IS leather, and again leather can be dyed quite easily. OK so it can show the muck, so what, just be careful with it!

We have cream leather, or vinyl in one as that was how I bought it, in all our kit cars, it goes very well with the period. As well as wooden dash and door cappings.

Our Disco anniversary has tan leather and we love it.

It would be out of place in a working tratter, obvs, but in a luxury 4x4? Why not? Unless you think it should only exist in Rollers or Jags.

There is something very immediate post-war about everything that is grey or gunmetal, or "functional". Grey is just such a sad colour, reminds me of all the tombstones and grave covers there are in our local cemetery here.

There! I have said my piece! :cool:

No snootiness just preferences. Amount of cars I've looked at and it's light cream seating with very marked and mucky interiors. Very off putting and I think it's a preference for a certain generation. Some of the wood panelling looks a bit tacky. Aesthetics is personal.

Tends to be associated with trousers on an elasticated waistband and v neck lambswool jumpers with stupid geometric designs. And moccasins. Always bloody moccasins.
 
...that the large thick-cut rib-eye steak me and my lovely lady shared for dinner was just awesome.
4 mins each side on a very hot BBQ then resting on a plate on the warming rack soaking up lots of melting butter.
Roasted shallots & peppers and grilled cheese-topped cauliflower to go with.
It was really tasty and not a bit got wasted. :D

We had a few drops of rain a while back, but it has been very humid working outside. Not comfortable.

Rain thunder and lightning promised over the next 24 hrs.
We could do with it!
We are now struggling to find cool places to store all the apple juice we have and will be getting more of.
But tasted it this a.m.! Nectar! So much better than even the more expensive and "local" stuff you can buy int shops.
Enjoy the arvo folks.:):):)
