nice pics. wish my front tyres had that much trwad left. Will have to get the 2 new ones i have fitted at the 18K oil change. Not done bad to last 18K.

You will have work cut out keeping it looking like that this weather mate

 

[Rich]

Cheers Guys. Yeah the car is Black Gold the lack of sun doesnt show the flecks of to well today though. Would like some coilovers for it eventually.

Cheers Liam, that will be the lack of miles on them (1500 so far).

By the last pics on my memory card had mud all over it, all washed and tucked away in the garage now though!

[Tom1]

Very nice pics, the car looks amazing.

 

[M1TCH]

how slow do you have to drive to keep it that clean down a country road then?? amazing pics mate!!

 

[Rich]

Not slow! - There is no close up's as they show the dirt! The ones towards the end of the memory car where to dirty to post LOL!

Cheers all.

 

[Caramel]

wow that needs lowering. nice car should invest in silvervisions

 

[Tom1]

Mines only got 400 on the clock but doesnt look as good as that and its never seen any wet weather.

 

[Rich]

Sounds like mine then - it's been out in the rain twice, the day I collected it and then I caught in the rain on the way back from a show.

 

[Thomss]

Nice pics.

 

[Tom1]

Sounds like you have brought yours for the same reason as me. Only ever use mine for fun at the weekends and ive only had it for 3 weeks but ive been up at the crack of dawn every Saturday

The top pic is the best with the red post box in:star: but I still hate those awful wheels!!!!

I like that one best too. Ended up taking a few shots there

I have grown to like the wheels now.

I'm gonna say it looks crap, coz I'm fed up with saying how good it always looks ;-)

Only joking mate looks mint as ever you put the rest of us to shame! Still I's expect nothing less from an ex concourse winner!

 

[Spammy]

What sealant/wax did you use?

 

[Rich]

Ha ha thanks Mark!

Spammy, Polished with Poorboys SSR 2, Clearkote Vannilla Moose and Red Machine Glaze by PC a few months ago. Sealed by Poorboys EX-p by hand.

Since then it has had a coat of Nattys Blue and Souveran. Now being maintained after washing with Optimum car wax.

 

[Munson]

Superb photos of a suberb car in some superb locations! Top photography and a mint car. Black is really growing on me! :approve:

 

[Lunner]

I can barley see the car its that foggy

 

[cliovicky]

fantastic pictures!! need to get some pictures of my 172!! but ia m not all that good with a camera ! and like someone said it aint the greatest time of year to take pics as i would never keep it clean

[Dave S2K]

Looking good r-jay, shame they don't stay that way too long this time of year, what camera did you buy?

 

[Leeshez]

Thats well shinny do you want to polish mine? Also what did you use on it??

 

[Martin_172]

wish mine was that shiney, black cars look amazing the second you wash them but after that they are dirty!

as a couple have said it needs lowered and your coilover idea sounds good also silvervisions too

 

[polarbert]

i think those are the best 2 photos, shows the amazing shine!

 

[Rich]

The close ups did seem to show of the paint. I think the car would have looked betterin the normal shots if the weather had been better.

A mixture of products really mostly the Clearkote, Poorboys ranges and a wax called Souvrean which is made for black and red cars.
