What have you done to your car today?

Ovlov is gone :( :) Happy but will be missed.

When the new owner test drove it, I guided him to a place to floor it, made us both smile.

Something to be said about the old T6 Volvos. Comfort and large 6-cyl, good stuff.
 
Hit a pothole - didn't even seem that bad. Nice. :rolleyes:

Fitted the auto dimming rear view mirror that UK GR86s didn't get. Useful little quality of life feature, especially in a car that sits very low to most other vehicles on the road.
No more reaching up to dim my own mirror like some sort of Neanderthal.

Gave the car a basic wash, rinsed it down first with my Greenworks GDC40 pressure washer after charging the batteries and I’m happy to report it still works after not using it for two years.

Then did the two bucket shampoo and water with a wash mitt, then dried it with microfiber drying towels. Car hadn’t been washed since it last serviced last June.
 
Just washed the Mrs's car. It needed it badly.

Also restored the plastic on the headlights but I think the attempt to revive the steering pump has failed. They'll charge for fixing that I suspect, if it doesn't fail the MOT on that then I think I will have to replace that next. Easy enough todo on that car.

Been there myself, but was a proper whack, knew the tyre would be damaged.
Went back the next day and the pot hole was a hands depth!

Washed car today and fitting a dash cam tomorrow.

Worst ones you think you got away with it then next morning you have a lovely great bubble on your tyre!
 
Added an interchiller. It uses the AC to cool the supercharger coolant rather than a heat exchanger.

Sub ambient intake temps make a world of difference.
 
Chucked some Pagid rear pads & discs on the ST as the pads were close to metal.
May possibly give it a wash sometime..
