Cleaned for the first time this year!

Post by ENSMR2 »

Decided it's been a while since the 2's last wash (november I think!)

Problem. Hosepipe ban

Solution: Luckily my mate owns a carwash :)

So off I went after taking the dog for a walk.

Left him to it whilst I went across the road to my other mates shop.

Came back a little while later. Said I'd be 15mins, was quite a while longer lol.

Anyway, whilst waiting he decided to get some polish and wax on it.

Results (excuse the quality but the pictures were taken via my phone):

next 2 are similar angle, one slightly lower though.

Speaking to one of the lacky's at my mates carwash. He said they went over the wheels 8 times! The brake dust had caked on apparently! :shock: Well it'd been a while lol. Come up a treat now though :mrgreen:

One of the other lacky's was sitting in it nodding his head. I spotted him as I was walking over the bridge from the other side of the road lol. As I drove off he kept nodding his head pmal.

Amazing what a clean car can do. I got tons of looks on the way home! :shock: Then a group of kids (7yr olds etc) followed me up one road when I was in traffic going "cor!" "whats that car"

GOt back and admired the car and took those pics

:mrgreen:

it was just "the line" out of the film.
can't remember the relevance of the flashes off top of my head, but in the film, every picture of, er, the kid, he's staring at an orb without anyone ever noticing.
