Finally sold the FTO today
Unfortunately it wasn't economical to keep 2 cars in my current position. One day I'll purchase another one.

Installed some hektik aero windscreen wipers on the NX.
So much more down-force now.
I even went full rebel, 1 size larger than manufacturer recommends!

To compliment the new added down-force on the NX
I just made the car 35kgs lighter!
I think the hatch lid will fly off now with the roof panels and windows down now.
