Saturday after the MOT , get the small No. plate back on and my carbon 'B' pillars, then cover the car over night.

Can't do it Sunday, have a half marathon to run

Not looking forward to cleaning the white wheels though, although I had them off just after Christmas and gave them a good clean and about three new coats of poorboys

stickers of gold wheels on,the pic that you had in the summer were nice of your motor. i was going to wash mine tonight but it is freezing. not sure what to do saturday's temp is only going to rise to about 5c with minus figures over night and then sunday top wack 6c then its suppose to be heavy snow monday, which could be a good idea for a night meet if the snow settles in open car park or something.

Got the MOT sorted at last, failed for dodgy lights, number plate and McRae Sticker on the windcsreen, so simple retest and now I can put the didgy lights and number plates back on.

Off to start cleaning and then to buy a HT Autos Splitter

Just spent two hours washing & some Megs clay bar.....now off to the gym!

Tmrw morning go to work from 7.30 am to 10am & then come home a apply only Paint Sealent & buff (no polish-jeffs werkstat etc as its not really worth it in this weather, even clay bar was only to take rubber marks off from Brands hatch). Then do black plastic trim; glass; exhaust & mount in car camera. (have'nt got time for interior )

ps Maggy I hate these gold wheels Open your shop up mate

For too keen, quick hoover inside, wash and dry car, wash and poorboys the wheels, little splash of tyre gel and covered ready for tomorrow...


Oh!! and discovered that one of my bumper vents has been clipped by some @rse in a car park. Looks like they've a little too early and nudged it, but enough to need to be resprayed.

The car really does need a respray, loads of annoying little blemishes and stone chips all over it

Wow you boys are keen! Mine "might" make it to a drive through on the way to the duck pond but that's about it! It's too minging in February to spend 4hrs cleaning to see all your hard work undone in 10mins driving!!
