I just washed and dried it never been polished her since I bought car in Sept (rained or snowed almost every day up here since then) really amazed at how good it comes up with just a wash, testament to the previous owner I think.
Can't wait until the better weather comes and I can get a deep shine going, maybe even stretch to a detail if funds allow.
I use Armourall stuff on the interior plastics of all my cars, good stuff and seems to keep the fluffy stuff from growing on the plastics.
What you can't see is the key mark on the passenger rear quarter that materialised the same time as a scratch appeared under the bootlid RS6 badge in between xmas and new year when I parked it out on the street, recon someone took a fancy to it but couldn't get it off so scratched the quarter in disgust.
Hopefully get these fixed soon and she will be tip top again.
Did spend about three hours polishing my newly refurbed alloys inside and out tho, missus thinks I've lost it

Have you still got DRC on? I like the stance. I think some can look too low but this is nice.

Looks very like ABZ, at the foot bridge, where do you get your garage work done?

Yeah Stupidog its the the old Victoria suspension bridge that goes over to Torry a workmate took pics of his 22B there and they came out pretty well so thought I would give it a try as I live pretty close by (Broomhill).
I've not had much done to the car but did have some warranty work done at Aberdeen Volks Centre in Kingswells, seemed to do a good job and not a bad price for their hourly rates.
Not sure where I'm going to use for servicing etc, who do you use? a trip to Unit20 etc is a monster undertaking from up here!

I'm getting Kingswells to do the service this time round but I took the trip south to Unit 20 for the last one and probally will for the next.
It wasn't too bad I left about 0400 clear roads and morning sun and arrived just after 0900. I spent the day in liverpool, had a night out and was back up the road the next day.
