I'm jealous of the side skirts. They look lovely.

Thanks - they fit nicely. Thanks to newkid for helping me swap them over.
I will have to take them off fairly soon
because as always with the lude its one step forward and one step back
the sills at the rear need some attention

Booked in for MOT test on Monday.
I must admit I have lost a bit of the love recently and have been thinking about downsizing to just one lude.
I would keep the BB6 as it is like a brand new car so less upkeep that means the BB1 might have to go.
If I had a garage or lockup I would keep both.
I would be interested in hearing what others think - which to keep and which to let go. Will prices go up next year and be better to hold and sell then? What are they worth?

Keep both. At least until the new 6th gen comes out, who knows, it might put the brand under the spotlight.
Can you not rent a local garage? @wurlycorner could offer some advice on managing multiple ludes.

BB1 went for MOT this morning. Straight pass no advisories.
This is how neighbours park up against the lude - I dont think im being unreasonable in expecting a bit more space to be given

That's some shitty parking, what happens if the car behind them does the same?
