That red paint is a right biiaatch but does look good after a good mop and polish!
Get some sealant glaze and/or wax on her now to keep the shine at bay.
Red soon oxidises and she'll quickly turn pink again!

I like that a lot!. I remember the two Tornado Red 90 Sport 20Vs I had looked gorgeous after a good polish and detailing. Sadly H751 FBD was written off by the guy who bought it off me shortly after he got it, and H134 ENH (a quattro) was bought off me by Booty, and I believe still looking good. It is a stunning colour. I have never been a fan of Mars Red or Laser Red.
