1st March, taxed the vee.

[VIICarCare]

And then she stayed here. lovely day it was too!

Dead battery. So, moving on I decided to strip the 182 of any lsp & try my homebrew wax. She was detox shampoo'd & clay mitted, cleansed & waxed. Lovin my wax atm, leaves a super glossy smooth finish, beading ain't bad either

Leaves a great finish on trim too

Beading action on the dci

Cheers

 

[Richyy182]

Jealous - very

P.s you would have to be a match stick man/woman to get in that garage

 

[VIICarCare]

Lol, blame the bf! Got loads of room either side but he's got shelving etc

 

[Gally]

You get the best out inferno Dawn. So glossy on a colour I don't normally like.

 

[Matt W]

I'd love to do a muddy rally stage in your V6.

 

[Russ Rallye]

Not a massive polisher but the inferno looks really good. Just had to put a new battery on my Vee too after it sat outside for a few months and not on the trickle charger, hopefully get mine mot's and taxed this month too.

Yummy... I took my Vee out today for the first time since the beginning of October..

That bean looks lush! :approve:

 

[Knuckles]

Out of curiosity, how much is it to tax a vee?

Same as a 182 IIRC.

Bargain!

 

[VIICarCare]

When will I be seeing the vee Shaun, been ages!

 

[ColinG]

March?! No chance!

Mine is SORN until May at least, still puddles on the roads are kind here

 

[Ash.]

I've never sorn mine but I don't use it in the winter anymore but I did give it a good blast yesterday. It felt ace. Dawn hope do you keep your exhaust so clean?

 

[VIICarCare]

lol Colin, tart

Ash, I haven't touched the exhaust for about 2 years I think!

 

[Willliams]

When are you available..!? Be great to see you.. loads to catch up on.

Will give you a call X

Hahaha... I know right.! But the weather yesterday was so good.. I just couldn't resist the temptation. That and the gritters are long since gone from here (only saw them once, mid January) and any salt residues have well and truly been washed away.. no puddles either! I only took it for a short drive, but loved every second of it. Needless to say, its now tucked away again as promptly as the sun appeared and went.. lol

 

[Rob]

Reading your threads always makes me want to clean my cars and never stop

Inferno looks magic, and I don't normally like them.

 

[jkyb]

Do your cars taste nice? Like a Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans type affair?

Majestically shiny.

 

[jim cook]

Good work fella !!

 

[Chip-mk1]

Good work fella !!

I think judging by the size of her tits its not a fella.

 

[VIICarCare]

Flol!

 

[Rob]

Subtle as ever chipster.

LOL!

 

[cat171]

Lol @ people who don't drive their Vee's in winter. Man up (or in this case woman up) FFS.

Whats the attraction of driving one around on salted winter roads though if you have another car that you can drive without it effecting the value of your car that is worth a reasonable amount and you want to keep long term?

Id sooner enjoy one for 50 summers than 10 summers and 10 winters, lol.

Who gives a sh*t though?
It's not like it's something that's fragile etc that you can't take out in the winter. Mine gets driven in all weathers (apart from snow) it's still mint too (anyone on here will tell you that) I have access to another car too by the way, but I prefer to use my own car.

I'd still get the same from mine as I would if I left it tucked away. I'd rather get out there & use the thing!

Depends what you want to do with it, Dawn seems to be interested in keeping hers mint and low mileage (cause she cares a lot about such things for some reason), so maybe if she is keeping the miles down she would sooner enjoy those miles in nice weather, and of course potentially her idea of mint and yours are different I suppose, or maybe you rinse underneath yours every time it gets salty etc in which case fair play on the commitment.

 

[Corby G]

And then she stayed here. lovely day it was too!

Looks lovely in the sun light. All the paints on the clio are just epic!

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Bought a battery charger/conditioner yet, Dawny ?

Each to their own then. I'll still carry on driving it through puddles & crap

By the way, the underside is basically boxed in, so I doubt the floor is going to fall out etc

 

[VIICarCare]

Yep Rob, got a trickle charger now! She came to life sunday so all is good. People treat their cars differently, I for one see no attraction on taking her out in the peeing rain & cold damp weather. Sunshine is more appealing.

Cheers

 

[Ed.200]

Bet you enjoyed listening to it again
Nice colour on the inferno!

 

[VIICarCare]

The best bit about her is the clunking of the gear change, missed that sound!
