While its not been ultra sunny its been warm and fine enough in Nottinghamshire to bring my big pussy back up to shine for the summer.

If you've been doing a simular thing lets have a look....

Shiny

Was going to do mine about now but it has just clouded over and going to rain.

I've given up polishing mine for a couple of weeks or until the weather clears up because the last 2 times i have done it, it's just started raining.

What size engine is that

[TW]Fox · 27 Apr 2008 at 16:57

Loving the weather, took the opportunity last week to spend the afternoon on an interim polish - will claybar etc etc etc after my exams.

Shame its silver so you cant tell.

Nice fairy lights

How do you guys remove the old wax before polishing again?. I keep meaning to do mine but i only managed to get one side done last time so want to completely start from scratch but not sure how to go about removing the wax i applied to one side.

Will stick a pic of mine up if i get round to it this week.

nice jag can't believe how big the boot is, its long then most peoples bonnets, bet it drinks loads aswell, does it only have 1 wiper on the front?

Looks very clean Fox!

A question though, doesn't the clay bay remove all polishes and waxes, meaning you'll have to re-polish after claying?

DannyW · 27 Apr 2008 at 17:43

fox you need rear tints and lcd's in the headrests

What polish did ya use?

Dup · 27 Apr 2008 at 17:47

Last weekend. I need to get a spare set of wheels so I can refurb a set. Currently can't even get the crap off them. Look OK in the photo with a days worth of brake dust on them. Might do them a darker shade when I get the opportunity.

i'm glad i don't have a silver car it's so unrewarding to polish i swear all the wax and polish in the world doesn't make a blind bit of difference

Dup · 27 Apr 2008 at 17:55

There is an angle on my car where you really can tell the effort. That pic it had been driver over 60 miles since I'd cleaned it in damp conditions so its a bit meh.

It doesn't

I just keep mine clean and it generally looks pretty good

The boot is pretty small inside, bigger than a focus/astra but not as big as a 406/mondeo!

All about the looks with Jags, despite its large external dimensions - interior space and boot space are sacrificed for the looks

As requested

As pointed out the boot space is quite shallow, and you dont get as much rear leg room as one may think.
