My Monaco 172 weekend scrub up

[CaptainSlow]

This weekend I gave the 172 a well deserved clean, had this nearly 2 years now as my daily drive and I stiil absolutely love it to bits.
Please forgive the poor phone pics!

Products used are Meguiars NXT shampoo, Megs ultimate polish and Megs carnuba wax (step 3), Megs hot tyre shine, Megs window cleaner.
Really wish i had the spare money to get into 'proper' detailing as a hobby, maybe after the house is sorted!
As I said before had this 2 years ( it used to be d4vys car ), and in that time it has never missed a beat, just the, ahem, usual clio niggles such as the heater resistor last month.

Also as a bonus here is a pic of my 172 and my friends old RB 182 cup which he recently sold

love this car.

Awesome car(s)!!!

 

[welshname]

That's lovely. Shame there aren't any for sale like that at the moment

 

[CaptainSlow]

Cheers, I doubt I'd ever sell it, for what their market value is at the moment no way!

It is worth more to me than that, I can't put my finger on what it is but the way they make you feel when driving feels great, I really look forward to driving it.
Hopefully one day values will go up and it will become a classic of sorts.

If I bought another 172, it would be another Monaco. The colour is just sublime
