Cool The WaxWizard might be coming up?

As above,

I may have Mark Underwood coming up to Fife area soon to do his "thang" to my STi after some numb-nut sprayed it with thier JetSpray road surface machine.

Is there anyone else that might be interested in getting thier car done by the Wax Wizard?

If so please start a list and will contact Mark to see what costs etc would be.

Cheers

OK guys, £70 gets a full bodywork valet, I will check exactly what's included and also see what extra, if any, engine cleaning etc will be.

Only thing is I won't be able to check until Monday as I've got the info at my work email (DOH!). Meant to forward it to the house but Friday afternoon was busy!

Cheers

Hi Mark, thanks for taking the time to comment.

May i ask what sort of a range you are planning to cover whilst you are with us in gods country? I am dead keen on having you give my shed a once over but as you can see, i am some 100+ miles away from Fife being in Aberdeenshire myself.

I have to say though that £70 seems like excellent value. I had a 'power polish' done at my local place for over £80 and they didn't even look at the engine bay/interior.

I could try drum up some interest amongst other ABZ owners if you like?

Cheers for popping in Mark.

Can we start a list to keep this tidy:

Bogie (Ewan) - Fife - Definately
WRXmania (Brian) - ? - ?
Zander - ? - ?
RS Grant - Dundee-ish - ?
Carl Davy - Aberdeen - ?
Rob D - ? - ?

Date wise this should hopefully be within the next couple of weeks, I'm sure if the numbers justify, Mark will possibly do a couple of areas?

Cheers

Bogie

PS Cheers Carl for popping this into SIDC too.

Guys,

What dates would suit?

I'm pretty much ASAP, but will be out of the country early October so preferably before then.

Weekend would also suit me better.

Cheers

I go offshore on the 5th. If i can be fitted in before then (ideally not the 4th... ) i'm a definite. Need at least a day to enjoy the car whilst it's clean.

This may sound a daft question but what if it's raining?

Have chatted with "bogie" (Ewan) and can confirm 2nd and 3rd are defo dates and will stay longer if required.

Each car get engine bay, wheels and wheel arches, bodywork, glasswork and a quick whizz over the interior. All interiors will be scotchguarded as a matter of course.

Ewan will co-ordinate peeps and location(s) etc and the dates peeps are coming.

Looking forward to seeing ya all.

Guys, are you all OK for coming to Fife (north), less travelling for Mark, the more cars he will manage before it gets dark each day. Plaese update list.

I am trying to keep this to 1 or 2 (max) locations.

For the Fife location I may manage to sort something out incase it rains on the Sat / Sun (which it probably will!!) but will advise nearer the time. (don't want to post on here anyway)

I will let the list run until say Wed / Thur this week then cut it off so all arrangements can be sorted.

SCOSaltire, I don't think Mark will mind what car you have. Add your name to the list.

Bogie (Ewan) - Fife - Definately - Fife OK - 2nd or 3rd Oct
WRXmania (Brian) - Fife - Definately Maybe (as Oasis said)
Zander - ? - ?
RS Grant - Dundee - ?
Carl Davey - Aberdeenshire - Definitely
Rob D - Aberdeenshire - Definitely
Stiks (Keith) - Fife - Definitely
RobinH20MRV (Robin) - Fife - Pending Dates

Cheers

Ewan

The drive to Fife is a long one and the car would get filthy on my way back anyway. It's not really worth my while bothering if there's is just the one location. With fuel etc it would become a £120 valet and at the end of the day i'd still have a mucky car lol...

Bogie (Ewan) - Fife - Definately - Fife OK - 2nd or 3rd Oct
WRXmania (Brian) - Fife - Definately Maybe (as Oasis said)
Zander - ? - ?
RS Grant - Dundee - ?
Carl Davey - Aberdeenshire - Definitely - 2nd or 3rd Oct provided Mark comes up to Aberdeenshire
Rob D - Aberdeenshire - Definitely
Stiks (Keith) - Fife - Definitely
RobinH20MRV (Robin) - Fife - Pending Dates
