Dude, I think you are overstating the obvious (that and the fact that written fiction has an attitute problem and seems to take a stab at the moderators of this forum at every opportunity - ie "so to those people who will question me if they are mine can fob off!")

Fastlane Hi,

A) No attitude problem what so ever
B) No stab at all for the moderators, I'm just tired of the people [not moderators ] that question me about my photos. It's happened time and time again in PM's that's all.

Well done WF with the pics, and well done to George for putting the sticky up so we can all post our RBAR offerings in the one place. Good thinking! :)

impossible to tell from the rear aleast.. as far as im aware the only cosmetic differences between VY-VZ are the front grille and headlights??

could be wrong though. =]

TOP photos as well mate! please keep up the good work! and dont worry bout wat others say in PMs mate.. atleast YOU know they are your pics.. and thats all that counts.
