Thanks Pasha, Funny how you don't know what it means until you have one !!

There is nothing like being at a party and listening to people say " I have an Audi!" or "I have a Ford" and you are just waiting :) you know they are going round everyone standing, and then they ask you and you say !!!!!!!!!!! "I have a Jag" !! I am not one for oneupmaship !! but it feels reals good :):):)

[Jimbo]

My will will do anything to get a shot at driving my car !! even wash those alloys !! haha

Like the alloys, but the downfall is the amount of spokes to clean, have fun. :D

I know what you mean BigAl, but that's why you have kids haha !! ( he is a car nut already) he washes my car so he can take it out of the drive, and down the street to turn it, then get his car in to wash!! so its OK with me :) free carwash anyone :D

I am thinking about changing the alloys as they do take a while to clean !! and it wont be fair to have him out all that time in the winter haha !!

Cheers

I think the alloys set the car off nicely, how about coating them in alloy wheel cleaner, I used it on my last alloys, so much easier to clean, you know there will be a time when he wants to go further than down the road, ha! ha! :D

[Jimbo]

Ha ha he there already !! he wants to just nip to the shop or pick up his girlfriend !! Its a constant battle haha :) I cant blame him tho :D

I bought He bought some Alloy spray from Halfords but it didn't make much difference, do you know any good ones ?

[BigAl]

I went to poundland and bought Autoworks -Wheel Shine, only cost a pound, worked ok on Hyundai 18" alloy wheels, before I used it took ages to get rid of brake dust and grime, afterwards, just washed the wheels with soft brush. good luck. :D

[Jimbo]

Guess where I'm going :D haha Pound land here I come !!! Cheers Mate :D

I'll let you know how it goes.
