Lovely Merc! lick

My red car spends most of its life tucked up in my garage away from sunlight. Even so, she still gets a lot of wax!

Wow... lovely little discreet 3.6 badge...

No - thats why it's going pink on roof and boot (had the front end painted last year)

BTW Nice car - three spokes were soo cool then and are still cool now on the right car

That is without a shadow of a doubt the coolest thing I have seen or heard of on a car.

I can't say I've polished my Focus more than once, and that was only the bonnet, front wings and front bumper. Still, it's only three years old and kept in the garage all the time, so hopefully the paintwork will stay looking good for many years to come.




Can't say the same about the wife's 13 year old Fiesta - the bumpers are going towards pink!

This!


I have a red Fiesta and keep getting asked have I been polishing it. Maybe do it once or twice a year but find a wash on an overcast day does the trick!
