    Why don't the two of you have some balls and donate a tenner each to a Mens prostrate cancer charity

    If the seller decides he is still going to sell it and I don't buy it when he does then yes I have no problem donating the money to a charity of RJ's choice, absolutely no problem.

    I do have a problem with betting on something that I haven't a notion of what the outcome might be.

    A spray of the hose not work? Usually takes it straight off for me.

    Always happy to hear that, take it for a spin in 3-4 months time by the end of the summer and we'll see then...;) :D


    @Autosport - I heard they keep doing it on really clean cars, drive through a few puddles next time should sort it..:D Using a small dab of petrol is excellent at removing tar spots, I'd imagine it's the same with bird crap.. :)

    Haha, I'm not thick, just a sheer lack of experience in body work. I only used sandpaper because I've seen people saying they sand things down to paint them, I take it that's a different kind of sanding?

    They really are very light though, the pictures make it look a lot worse than it is, bit more wax and polish and it's not all that noticeable. What is DA?

    :eek:

    Needed a laugh!

    I'm in St Petersburg in Russia at the moment and I was hoping to see lots of old school russian models but its all euro and jap cars same as at home. Petrol is around 80c a litre here so nobody drives diesel. Ill post some pics later.
