Quickly valeted the Paris

[Jonny Ingham]

I know it's only an old Paris but I like my cars clean.

Used the Karcher, 2 bucket method, some leftover polish I had and couldn't be bothered to seal it as it was spitting so just blacked the bumpers.
Shampooed the interior, cleaned all the plastics down and hoovered. Then sprayed some fireflower solution I made on the seats, carpets and in the boot to give it a better smell inside. Still not as clean as I'd like but when the weather picks up next week I'll give it a real good do!
(On the pic of the Renault badge at the front you can see where I've missed a little of the oxidisation on the bonnet just to the left. Shows just how pink it was!)

Sorry about the amount of pictures.

Needs a mental engine in it and it could be a quality sleeper.

Very clean though bud.

The time I don't get metaphorically raped on insurance is when I'll be dropping a 172 in it.

Thanks for the kind comments.

That looks absolutely mint. Mileage?

 

[Jonny Ingham]

Thank you my kindred spirits.

Just over 56,000 miles. Little dints and dings here and there but generally okay condition, just need to sort out a few things and service it even though I haven't a clue what I'm doing. :|

Its good to see someone who can look after a car!

Looks bloody lovely that does mate

 

[meady100]

Impressive - something even more gratifying about seeing an older car kept in such good nick!

Cheers flowers.
It's a shitter when it rains but when I know I can go out and have people commenting on how clean it is for it's age.. it's really rewarding.

Once I get all the mechanical stuff sorted out (service, dogbone, exhaust) I'll probably be putting it up for sale.
