Got a mate to order brakes and pads from tps, which was cheaper than euro car parts.

Sometimes it's a case of not what you know but who you know.

Filled the boot full of tyres for SWMBO's Leon, now to add wheels and drop them off at my mate's garage.

Took it over all the "2"s

 

Very nice. Well planned

Fabia passed its first MOT with no issues at all.

Very nice. Well planned

Had to drive up & down a stretch of private road near the house so I could be sure of being able to stop when it rolled over!

Gave the Fab a good clean. Snowfoam, wash, dry, sealant, wax and a final QD. And some tyre dressing and a window clean for good measure. 

Every 4-6 weeks i take all the rims off and give them a good wash and polish, and detail under the arches im sure the neighbors think im nuts but who cares ..maybe i am !!!!

 

 

Impressive, and dedicated!

 

That is one clean arch..... 

Very nice ...Cleaner than mine!!!  

Yes you are, but I'm only jealous. Looks cleaner than the rest of my car :lol:

Christ on a bike, that's dedicated. When do you find time to drive it?!

Lord no.

Tuesday was approx 5 hours to do the wheels/arches and wheel badges.

 

Wednesday was approx 4 ish hours for the paintwork, body badges and glass.

 

Thursday was possibly just over an hour or so to hoover/clean the interior.
