I bought a C4 sight unseen off eBay for £8k

Thanks for posting, I've seen their ads too and admire their descriptions of the process but always thought a bit more detail about the car would be welcomed!

Did £8k include that plate?

A cheeky placement of the number plate screw to make the S look more like a 9 :)

Part of me wanted to keep that, but I didn't want any hassle from the boys and girls in blue so it's now looking more legal.
 
I did some seat cleaning ahead of applying a dye kit when it arrives next week.

Congrats! I bought my 4S from there a couple of years ago, I knew it needed a few quid spent on it but still going strong.
 
I re-dyed my steering wheel and drivers seat. Both look loads better.

That looks great...were you tempted to dye the whole car black or is that just a job too far?
 
I used to hate the grey interiors on these with a passion. I always thought they looked like they were made from recycled slip on shoes that cheap salesmen wore. But actually in the sunshine, driving round with the windows down and the sunroof open, the light interior works really well. It's definitely grown on me.
 
You've already done way more on yours than I've done on mine...all of those jobs still need doing on mine! :-|

I have the advantage of being on a sabbatical and therefore having all the time I'm the world (or at least I did until my wife finished work for the summer holidays, now I have a list of house things to do :x )
