Yesterday, actually - swapped the 16" winter alloys for 18" original [summer] ones ... for a moment I thought I might keep it half-and-half ... :shock:

Now I need to wash the car - hasn't seen a wash bucket in over a month, poor thing.

Woke up this morning and noticed my 55 was missing.............Then I remembered someone saying to me that my car was filthy and could do with a wash after I said that I washed my car......Found her car in garage this morning :rolleyes:
So what would a good husband do..............

Just thrown a bucket of water over mine, think it’s the first time I’ve done it :eek::D:p

Cleaned up quite well :)

Then gave it a going over with AG Ultra Deep Shine (made for dark cars)

Quite happy with the results

Cleaned mine again, underneath this time including all the plastic protection things like engine and transmission trays, rear wishbone covers and anything else I could find. I'll probably start polishing the exhaust pipes and silencers tomorrow or Sunday as the boredom has now started to set in.

Bought a 208 320 convertible today. Contact free car purchasing, not bad!

Recovered whilst I sat in the other car and followed the recovery lorry to the workshop. Bank transfer and job done.

It has no key, so once we make up a new one, I hope it runs OK :)
