7 hours of work later... She looks like a gem.
Full valet - ph neutral shampoo, washed twice using two bucket method, zymol wet wax, applied twice, interior vacuumed, carpets washed, windows cleaned with AutoGlym Fast Glass, alloys treated with autoglym clean wheels, tyres dressed with AutoGlym Tyre Polish.
All in all, pleased with the results.0 -

Looks like a nice spot, car looks well too. Where is she now? out to pasture or boo'd and screwed in a field somewhere :P.
Well me 406 is sitting at the gate in the usual parking spot
surprisingly standard but I just haven't had the time to do fun stuff! 
As for the Merc, I sold it in Feb and it changed hands many times since. It's a toss up between it and the red 406 which was the most fun daily driver, each never failed to put a smile on my face for different reasons, each with many memorable stories behind them
Here's to hoping I have the C220 at least running with the 3.0 later this year 0 -

Family car pics here
My great aunt and uncle's 1999 Primera. Has it since it was 1 year old, and has only covered 61,000 miles. Does very little driving, but without exception, they drive to Ireland every year, from south Cornwall in England. Both are well into their 80's, but he can still drive perfect. There hasn't been an inch of Ireland they haven't covered in this past 60 years of holidaying here.
The car itself is immaculately clean, spotless inside, one of the highest spec's primearas too. It's a 1.8 petrol.
You can probably see a few touch-ups on the bumpers, which he done himself, not that great, but you have to admire the fact he tries. It would be very rear to find something similar, a 1999 reg, in this country!
Sorry if these pictures are all over the place, this post literally took me an hour to compile - had to resort to a crap windows xp computer, seeing as mine is broken.0 -

I don't know paddy, i loved that car.
I can't warm to modern golfs.
It's the seats in them that turn me off , look like them old hats <racist term removed> would wear.
Also don't understand why people buy high performance cars in auto instead of manual , each to their own of course but that would take the fun out of it for me completely...I like the shift
But that is a very well kept and clean GTI.0 -

The seats are class and a throw back to the original GTI, have you ever driven a DSG GTI ?0 -

DSG is miles ahead of your average auto box, they are quicker than the manual and all, I'm not a massive fan of autos myself but I'd have a DSG GTI anyday.0 -
Had one of those primeras.
They are one comfy car to go on a trip.
You could drive them all day.
The woman I sold it to in October 2005 is still driving it. Though she told me last week it wont pass the next nct as the chassis is starting to rust.
This is it.

The 159 after a wax using Tesco car wax. I bet you are all thinking "Tesco, car wax!? That must be ****". And you'd be right. Dreadful stuff. It looks fine here, but the first rain shower after and the car was covered in more water marks than it was before I waxed it. Brought it back for a lovely refund of €4.20. Lesson learned.0 -

The tesco cucumber car shampoo looks like good fun though. Havn't tried it yet though.
I'm pretty sure the tesco bits are made by simoniz. A lot of the tesco stuff isn't great but you won't get many detailing enthusiasts buying their gear in tescos.
I bought a load of tesco branded large genuine leather chamois' last week for €2 each, delighted. I know, i know chamois, scratches etc. I use it with common sense and one or two swirls wont have me losing sleep.
