Washed, polished, waxed, windows cleaned inside and out, tyres dressed, wheels treated with Chemical Guys Wheel Guard, interior dusted, mats brushed, started on the black trim but there is so much of it I only got to do the wipers, wipers grills, main grill and side skirts.



A bit overcast but you get the idea

Wheels and tyres came up nice

It was a bit of a Meguiars fest

Two great products biglaughdrink


Went though a few sponge applicators and microfibre cloths so those will have to be cleaned fir next time. Will have to finish the black trim, hoover etc etc it never seems to never end although I only go this far a few times a year.

I don't like the "eyebrow" but I like the paintwork and the stripes smile

Eyebrows are a love it or hate it item. I like them so they stay.

Really like that, someone near me has one similar but without the stripes.

The stripes are Hartge stripes. There are actually 5 pin stripes of various sizes with HARTGE logo over the rear wheels.

The wheels are also Hartge, hens teeth to find as they stoped making them years ago. Although I have another set in my garage.


They are ok but I would want them refurbed
