Post by: cafstar on September 05, 2010, 09:35:06: its just totally bitchin' B)

Once I've got some nice alloys, a lowering kit and a black number plate this machine is going to look ah-may-zing!

I'm seriously considering having someone paint the roof rails as well. I have black rhino racks, so I'm not worried about the paint work.

I think I shall call my car Matthias.

Yeah, I'm hosing mine off twice a week and bucket washing once a week to get it "show room" clean. today it was a nice way to wind down after work, I do actually enjoy cleaning my car... its the obsessive compulsive in me.

I'm the same with Black, I knew what I was in for as our other car is also black - but when they've been cleaned up and polished the black looks good.

Post by: cafstar on September 28, 2010, 11:07:57: I live in a street that has a large number of retirees. I think every single one of them has said "you're gonna wash that car away you know!"

It wasn't funny the first time, but the last time someone said it, they were washing their own car... I think I made them feel guilty B)
