Nice job of cleaning BTW.
As I came back about 8pm last night I didn't have much chance to go over the car fully and check it all out.
The drive back from Ready to Nottm.. approx 150 miles, went well. The car drove sweet. avg 41mpg too
This afternoon I popped to the yard to get three screws to secure the head light that didn't have anything holding it!!
Checking out the car I found a few 'problems/issues)
Drivers sun visor keeps dropping down (can that be fixed are do I need to get another?)
Few small dents and little scrapes. Signs of re spray on the drivers side and front bumper looks re sprayed.
No dents on the sides.. alloys quite good condition too, not like some sheds I'd seen previously.
So for a 10 yr old car don't think it's too bad.
So.. pix....
The start, before cleaning...
interior not too bad (will clean next weekend)
dirty boot hinge edge runners and underside areas
Cleaning, sprayed engine de greaser over all the engine and dirty parts of the car, Car Kandy alloy wheel cleaner sprayed on the alloys prior to snow foam pre was.
A pre was with Snow FoamWax. Then a bucket wash, snow foam wax rince, ClayBar, then a T cut on areas that needed it lik ethe plastic trim skirts and bumpers, a few scruffs. Then another snow foam wash wash and bucket wash. dried off with micro fibre towel. Then polished up with CarKandy liquid polish.
BEFORE: Claybar
AFTER: claybar after just the bonnet was done
it was a lot worse after all the car was clay'd
Engine came up like new..
The drain holes were blocked with leaves/silt...... there not blocked now after being jet washed and brushed out lol
edges and runners a lot better..
Best pic so far atfer all was done.. it was late and getting dark so not the best pix. (more will come)
Any black trim was cleaned with Mer vinyl/bumper cleaner.
Tyres had Mer tyre finish applied.
Thanks for looking.

woooow impressed thats worked wonders
Very clean.
You have done a good job there.
so is a 'speedgear' a Auto?
6speed i think?
you can choose either full Auto.. with Economy mode On or OFF.Originally Posted by Adame
Or Semi Auto gear change (7 speed)
It's changing gear with out a clutch.. you move the gear stick up each gear change 1,2,3,4 etc and move it down to change down... 7,6,5,4,3 etc.
But when you come to a stop it changes back to 1 for you.
Its real easy driving.
Thats really nice mate.
Good stuff
