Clean at last!

Weather is good so I had to take advantage, not before going out for a quick early morning spin though.

The lens is slightly moist due to the fog so they aren't amazing but they were all taken using manual settings, I'm getting to know what does what now and how each setting affects the outcome so in turn providing better shots and a better success rate.

Also rung the insurers the other day and got a mint quote on a cup so I'm definitely getting one beginning of March now so I'll be removing bits and bobs from the car in two or three weeks time before I advertise it for sale so if anyone sees anything they like feel free to PM me for a price. ;)

Mint wee motor that. Keep the Xenons for the Cup btw.

Thanks, yeah sure am pal, the xenons are staying with me, still got the standard units to put them back on for sale time.

Just a quick wash and dry. It was fully detailed including paint correction in September last year by a quality firm so everytime it gets washed it brings out the shine. Depending on the weather come sale time I might give it another coat of wax. It's lasted ages though, was money well spent.

Really nice motor this, nothing to complicated, just subtle things that really tidy it up. :)

Damn right !

It's also not pink :rasp:


I cleaned mine today .. well it had some abuse from the Karacher and some SSF bubbles ! Tomorrow will be claybar / polish / seal for the first time in 6 months, and hope that it looks nice for at least 20 minutes.

Damn black cars :dead:

That was the idea really just get it looking mint, and sounding mint too of course.

If I was to keep it another year I'd go the whole nine yards and strip out the rear, bucket seats, exhaust manifold and remap etc but decided to sell on and upgrade instead.
