    Good reflection shot as light colors are hard to get good reflection shots out of.

        Nice car. It says a lot about the detailer when he/she can make a silver reflect like that.

        P.S. Is Astra a GM vehicle?

                  Hi Mike,

                  would either of the two be good enough to enter in the best reflection contest?

                    What a nice small car! I'm jealous of you guys across the pond of the cars you get. The domestics here stick us with trash and give you guys the good stuff!

                    Got any inside pics?
