Some nice cars there dude - good to see you have been busy. :thumbup:

 

Very jealous of the detailing space.... i really do need to sort my garage out!

The R8 looks awesome in that body/wheel colour combo! Superb results!

Two motors at the opposite end of the scale there buddy! Top work! That detailing space is quality!

So, take a look at this beast.....Jag XF, 12 plate, V6 diesel. Not your every day ride and you certainly don't want to be a rear passenger!! If it's got paint it'll polish! Started this today with a full decon and prep for tomorrow's paint correction. The panels are MASSIVE. The finish looked reasonable after the decon but all panels were full of defects. It's gonna be a long day tomorrow, wish me luck.

Best of luck Chubbs, don't kill yourself in the process  :giggle:

Cheers ste. The interior was a big selling point for me oh and the noise that comes from the monza exhaust

Enhancement detail and winter protection completed today in time for its first outing for someone tomorrow. Sad day for the family and their friends but I'm feeling good to know they'll be travelling in style.

Hey all

Really busy of late, but managed to get the focus clean today! Two weeks on the Norfolk roads left it looking grim!

So a soak with Powermaxed TFR and then Aw Fast Foam on top left her looking much better. Wheels had been cleaned at this point with KKD Brake away at 10:1.

And after a wash with Powermaxed Shampoo and wiped down with BSD and she's back to normal..... But not for long I wouldn't imagine!

Hope you are all well!!!

Great looking car those! Love it. Great interior too! Quick question if that's okay, is there enough room in the back for children to be comfortable?

I have a 7year and he can sit behind me on his booster seat without any issues and I'm 6'1 so my seat is quite far back on the rails.

I'd imagine if you had 2children it might be bit of a squeeze (depending how tall they are) We all went and did the weekly shop in it last week and managed to get 6bags in the boot and the others on the back seat

Awesome, thanks for the info!! Mine are 6 and 7 years old so should be okay really! Interesting. I've always liked them, and the 595's are a classy little car!!

Liking the gloss that the Waxaddicts Quartz gave matey. A stunner all round!!

Did a quick snowfoam, 2BM wash and dry on my Monte estate today, got rid of tons of crud as we all have to deal with this time of year!

Thanks mate, it did come up surprisingly well with the minimal effort that I put in lol. Hoping to give it a proper machine polish in the new year as there's quite a lot of wash marring and other defects from washy hand man and dealers doing their magic on the paint lol

Nice to have you back online Neil - i know you have been busy!!!

 

Cracking little detail there and i'm sure that BSD top-up will work wonders  :thumbup:

After a busy week and fa too many beers at Xmas parties;

a quiet day today and some detailing duties on the Z4.

 

Interior leather given a wipe down..... protection was topped up.

 

Opted for Wowo's Contact 121 wax.... very nice.... easy to use...
