I apologise if these pop up mega big pictures, mods feel free to re-size

got the car a protection detail off D&D detailing in Cork the other weekend.

Looked brilliant for about an hour and the weather ruined it.

Nice Fiesta, Gav.

I find Flickr handy as it gives you a few different links to the same photo just in different sizes.

Saw them working on your car, whenI called up to them to get a price for a coating about two weeks ago. Amazing looking car in the flesh.
Did you go with their Carbon Collective coating they offer?

I didnt but ill get it done again towards march or april and get their opinion on it. It sounded like a good procedure though, the guys are very professional up there and ya can see theyve got a great passion for their work when discussing options.

Ah maybe next time. There was a good few endurance race cars in the paddock when I was there. I wasn't allowed to take pics of them though which was a pita.

Toyotafanboi · 08-02-2016 12:44PM

finally seen the Yaris with the lights on today :P safe to say, whoever owned this car really really loved it and has taken exceptional care of it.

i think when MCM refer to "human slime" and "automotive archaeology" that this is what they mean.

Lol! :pac:

Can't get over the glass in the back. Like were they in a rush, that they had to bring the glass of drink with them?

Toyotafanboi · 08-02-2016 01:10PM

The sticker is for http://eireoggreystones.com

And job seeker I got your pm, havn't forgotten about you

The Yaris is truly mauldy. It's off getting welded now, then hopefully re-NCT'd asap. Been an interesting journey this far.

It's mauldy alright. But you're good at detailing.

Them cup holders are fairly nasty alright it's one of my pet hates dirty cup holders.

Did you get free lip gloss with the car tfb that's a positive at least I suppose :pac:

Toyotafanboi · 08-02-2016 07:03PM

Lip gloss, a slim jim glass and a cassette of late 90's dance music, not too shabby

GvidoR · 08-02-2016 07:06PM

It's interesting how it appears to have the cassette player separate to the head unit.

Last pics of the Levin, she's up for sale now. I'll be sad to see it go (hopefully to someone who takes care of it), but it's time for a change!

job seeker · 08-02-2016 07:46PM

Right in the feels, best of luck with the new car and the sale...

Cheers! It's surprising the emotional attachment you can have to a car. To some it's just transport, a lump of metal, a practicality. It's so much more though, a bit like a home being alot more than simple bricks and mortar. I'm genuinely sad to be selling it, but alas. So much love and care gone into it!

What are you going to replace it with? It's a beautiful car!

I actually learnt to drive in one, fantastic fun to drive those yokes.

AndyBoBandy · 09-02-2016 10:12AM

They do look like great craic in fairness, and I'd say their nippy enough with the small engine because they are so light.
