Thanks guys.
SER: The bonnet straps are 'original'... despite the somewhat damaged paint, I believe the previous owner kept the car 'indoors' a lot so the leather and 'wool' are both in excellent shape.
Geordie: Yes, certainly. Azuri Car Care. Graham is a perfectionist and a bloody nice bloke too. They do lots of work on new Mclarens/Lambo's/Porsches etc!
https://azuricarcare.co.ukThe finished result is indeed stunning, but detailing is still there for me to do... engine bay etc etc!
The final ceramic coating is done once the paint correction etc has been completed... it has a 'design life' of about 5 years in 'normal' use. So I am hoping a pampered life will see it lasting a lot longer!
