Thanks oobster, glad you're enjoying my thread

Following on from my untreated rubber mat as above, I was given the name Koch-Chemie Gummifix Guf for rejuvenating rubber mats so I bought a bottle and it arrived today. I've just applied it and let it dry and can confirm it isn't slippery although you can feel a little more movement under-foot. I've not driven the car yet but I think it might be a good product to keep rubber mats looking good

Volvo pampering or possibly OCD obsession, I only know what SWMBO tells me and that's certainly not pampering... hehe

Not sure what the durability is like on exterior trim, the blurb from the manufactures states the following:

"Non-greasy, silicone-oil-free rubber and plastic care for rubber foot mats, plastic floor surfaces and other interior areas in cars and commercial vehicles for which slip resistance is necessary. Makes surfaces appear ´as new‘."

First car show of the year at the Riverside Museum.

Mine is outside near the centre of the window...



The sun shone all day so when I returned home I decided to get the other car out to allow me to clean the winter aftermath off the garage floor.

Well what a coincidence!!!

349 miles driven today and the average fuel consumption was 34.9mpg.

Does that mean if I drive 600 miles my average will be 60mpg? biggrin
