Man of Honour
Check for nails! It's likely a nail or something which seems to be my yearly discovery when one tyre is low on pressure, or two tyres on the same damn side as it turned out last year

New Car
Had to replace my old car because the rust that held it together got a bit too much
Ok, it is not quite a supercar ferrari 6000 with flames that come out the back, (yes, you probably looking at it like it is a car for peasants) but when you have to spend a million pounds a year on train fairs (commute to work) you have to make cut backs. Here she is:

I was in a garage yesterday where a Ford Focus was having eco boom swap.
Reminds me of the Sheikh from Cananonball Run.

The curb looked like a dodgy spoiler for a minute! Would definitely add to the look!
Seems nice and clean, is this one for you to keep?

I may well end up keeping it but if I can get $20,000 more than I paid for it I’d probably let it go. I don’t think it wants to leave though as it burst a brake line an hour ago

Spent last couple evenings prepping and doing a two stage correction on 360, so a medium cut compound using green pad and then final fine deep gloss cut using grey pad. Autobrite products used with their machine polisher. No wax or ceramics added yet, still the gloss is ace:
Over the weekend I shall be having my first attempt at adding a true ceramic, shall be using the Gteqnique CSL and EVO so wish me luck but can’t wait to see the added gloss and the CSL is a 5 year coating / protection.
The condition of the 360 is superb, 23 years old but looks new.

Fantastic!
How do you find the time for all of this?!
Is your life literally just work & cars?

I'm envious of the garage space (and obviously the cars in there) ,would love to get my car 'indoors' for some DA action,.would be much nicer than trying to do it on the drive

Are you taking the 360 and leaving the rest? I've booked Nicolas Cage to recreate Gone in 60 Seconds.
