Cheers John,

I only have a couple of hours free between about 11:45 AM and 3PM as I am out in the morning and later in the afternoon to Galashiels. Just realised the date was this week too!!

Totally skint too - paid for insurance for the Primera and new brakes for the Impreza already this month and exhaust work to the Primera too.

Do you think it would be a major issue if I dropped out - if it is a problem then I will come as I can come between about noon and 3PM sometime? Any idea how long it takes - I will need to explore the deeper depths of my overdraft if I am coming

Mark, you have PM for Sunday's info.

WRXmania, this won't happen again for some time and with winter coming it's a good investment. Your overdraft won't mind!!

Cheers

Guys,

Mark usually works on several cars at a time that way he ain't waiting between cleaning stages.

If all cars are there at the same time it will be better for him. WRXmaina could just come at 12pm (or a soon as poss) and the other 2 will be well on thier way by then.

Mark will probably post / call to advise what's best for his working.

Cheers

GIRUY. will take some magic to make a grey car look good !

Fantastic work by Mark , and I actually thought I was doin' a reasonable job on waxing mine . The engine bay is just immaculate now and the paintwork feels like silk. Enough product to keep me going for a while too !

I'll post some pics on the SIDC site, cause its easier/ less likely to move

Talking

From what I've heard from the Mrs, Mark has done an outstanding job on all three cars just can't wait now to get home and see it just hope the Mrs doesn't take it out and get it too dirty before I get home.

Another shout for bogie who organised the whole thing to start with

Glad you guys are happy with the Wizard's results, knew you wouldn't be disappointed!!

Now I'm off to give mine a quick wash, Mark will be here to do mine and RyanG's tomorrow, can't wait.

Will also be sad and take some before and after pics, will need to get someone to post them for me though.

Cheers

fair play to Mrs NTS too John. Looked after the boys tea and Rolls. Poor lady was up since 6.30. Don't worry about the car, Ive offered to take it for a wee run just to make sure the battery doesn't run flat again

Yeah heard she was a bit busy just glad to hear everything went ok for everybody, hoping the battery doesn't go flat again , got an engineer from tracker coming out tomorrow to check it over. Hopefully he'll find something wrong with it, otherwise I'll have to fight the dealer again as he says he wont change the battery unless the tracker proves clear

3 guesses Brian and the first two don't count

House looks good from the front pity the back garden currently resembles a building site, at least the garage is nice and tidy

Well guys, had Mark here yesterday to sort out my Scoob.

What a top notch job he's done, all tar now removed and paint back in pristine condition.

Can't believe the difference in the engine bay either, cars only 6months old but looks shecht hot without that horrible sticky green waxy stuff.

Managed to pick up a few tips too.

Cheers Mark!
