    Probably - sounds like him alright. I meant it more in the sense that it's looks very tired with those orange lenses.

    Happy motoring :D

    Washed mine today and gave it a wipe of a claybar and a polish, shower of rain came along before I had it waxed and I wasn't too keen on doing any more anyway, some other day me thinks.

    Thanks guys, makes me smile everytime I put the boot down:) well worth the extra tax and petrol me thinks. Specially when some douche in a 1.4 skangermobile pulls up beside ya :D


  • Posts: 23,339 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    You got it for a very decent price too, didn't cost you much to trade up, well done :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,238 ✭✭✭Ardennes1944


    650 off the asking ain't bad ;) the computer thing in it has way too many settings though!

    What you could do if you wanted to is get a bottle of turtle wax Wax it Wet, spray the car with water (considering it's still clean) and then you'd at least have that protection until you can dry wax it.


  • Posts: 23,339 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Cheers for that :)
    I'm not at all familiar with valeting products these days, never heard of the wax it wet stuff. Was going to use the Megs spray stuff I was using as a lube with the claybar but just wasn't arsed :o I think I'll get some quite decent polish and wax and probably give it a very good sprucing up over the next 2 or 3 washes :)

    Exactly. She foots the bills, I get to drive it whenever I feel like. It's a win win situation ;)

    The women in your family do much better than a pair of VW's. Your sisters, what's that? 325i?

    I personally have plans on the bangernomics thread to get something into my driveway.
