    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.

    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.

    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 :)

    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.
