Well ive checked the weather reports its dry for the next few days, temps arent too low so hopefully be no salt gritters out so should be safe to get the car out tomorrow, quite excited not even seen the thing in nearly a month (hope its still where I left it lol)

If its not too cold tomorrow will give it a good wash and polish and go for a quick spin, downside to doing this will be I will want to drive it constantly from then on in!!

..that'll be in your pants then mate, try driving it more and you'll find the fear decreases, untill one day you say - "I NEED MORE POWER!" and "BRING ON THE SLIPPY STUFF - POWER SLIDE"

ps you've got to shout these in a Clarkson style for maximum effect!

Thats what my daily driver is for. And its a real snotbox too! Monaro is for high days and holidays, its not 'white goods' to me and has to last me a very long time.

Walk around vid pre wash:

Walk around after wash:

Not entirely sure why the vids arent replicating themselves as per on my pc, when I upload them onto the laptop they are crystal clear but when in youtube dont appear anywhere near as good, any ideas?
