Of course...and all the others!!

Cracking work as always guys!

Yes really hard work today but worth it, Wayne is a top bloke too, he needs to get his center caps replaced under warranty before it runs out as well. Chris you did not mention I used your new detailer ball that attaches on to a drill to ease exhaust center cleaning, as suggested by Ste . Satisfying to get a car that has not been cherished by a former owner return to its former glory

well done chris

wayne is lucky to have you live near you .wish you lived near me you could do mine for me.

bill

Chris / Alan!

Wot can I say?

Chris your detailing on Audrey (Superb) is amazing!

The 1st thing i saw whn i came to pick her up was the super reflection of my self on her bodywork.

Next, the touch was silky smooth (i clay and shampoo my cars - but nothing as smooth as your work on Audrey!)

Alan, real nice R36 - sure is FAST! :-)

These pics shows the true results of both Chris / Alans hard work today:

No, this is not me! :-)

Chris / Alan - thank you!

PS: Chris wot wipes did u use on the interior?

- I really like tht fragrance for Audrey!

Glad you are pleased Wayne, it was bilt hamber qd . Your nearside brake bulb has blown, and if you take it to Dm Keiths you can have all 4 wheel center caps replaced under warranty, nice pictures

Cheers Alan!

U mean its the BILT stuff tht gave the nice smell in the car?

Have extended the warranty another 2 years - so plenty of time to replace center caps?

Rear brake seems to be working, but warning light still on :-(

I ll refit the brake bulb to see if make difference ...

No only original 3 years for them so drop it off for them to look at them

and yes all bilt hamber stuff has that nice smell

That was one viscous car wash looking at those swirls! Great result guys and Rosso shines up really nicely.

... and the SHINE continues ... 6:30am this morning ....even kept the frost away!

Yes Wayne.

Bilt Hamber QD on the door shuts, but the other smell is Valet Pro Citrus Tar remover I used on the left footrest

Glad you liked it..Alan and I had a good sense of achievement.

CU soon

Fantastic result - and yes Wayne, i love that day after a full detail and the moisture and ice cant get hold on a well polished, selaed, waxed car!

Just jump in and drive..... normally very annoying as my neighbour is de-icing his car at the same time i leave home

Again - stunning work from Chris and Alan.... but i would not expect anything less!!!

Mine was white this morning!!

Cu tonight Ste and we can discuss your requirements

That rosso colour really does clean up well ....just waiting to hear back from Baker21 to get mine done now....be interesting to see how well Regency green will polish up

Yes Ste is next for the treatment,( to match his shiny new plates, he really is in our private plated gang now, no moving of black screws to spell your name either! ) just need to arrange a suitable day

...the "treatment"! Sounds painful!

Need to get paperwork etc sorted on the plate - jumped the gun a bit on ordering the plates!

Plus you turned up unannounced at the house and spoiled the surprise Alan! :S

Must have sold a load of stuff on eBay again to cover that purchase, sorry I spoilt your surprise

Yeah - plates arrived yesterday - i had just opened them 5 mins before you showed up!

eBay business is slowing a bit - but so far done 40 LED kits for the Mini R56; 4 LED kits for the R36's.

Just waiting on work to pay our bonus next month and get alloys refurbished if all goes well.

Wot plates?

Any pics?

Nice detail there and this colour certainly comes up well after a good machine polish.

Interested to hear that you used Black Hole though, any reasons why?

Sorry for the delay in responding but you now have email...........

Audrey looks really good guys. It's a great feeling when you stand back and see a better than just out of the factory look.
