TechNick's Mauritius blue saloon

[TechNick]

New thread started off the back of this one...

Selection of images to try and demonstrate how much the colour seems to vary under different conditions:

Best looking colour (when it's clean) IMO. Then again the best colour never seems to be the one you own.

Never thought of that but so true... I bought a red audi as it looked great, until I owned one... sold it within a year and bought a Black one. My favourite colour car was a dark blue TT in 2002; so when I bought new 635d I ordered it in deep blue and its spot on. Dilemma is what colour next as need to change the wifes motor... I'm thinking Black or Silver.

Oh, and that Blue saloon above is simply MINT!

Note to self, must wax my car next weekend.

Great great colour...by way of contrast, my muggy in France this summer (and immediately prior to a trip back to KDS on our return)...

[TechNick]

Thanks!

Ha! Not of my doing, I can assure you - one of thoses things that seem to get added specifically to wind me up (but partially tolerated in order to maintain marital bliss... )
Replaced the dodgy kiddy blinds with tints, but obviously still have a bit of work to do

You need to teach him the 2 bucket method if you want to keep that paintwork mint

My mate's 3 year old daughter washed his car for him. Only instead of a sponge she used a rock

In his words "it didn't go very well".

lol! I rember a few years back when my 5 year old helped daddy dry the RS4 ( when I was in the garage) with his school anorak which had a few zip pockets!!!

Very true! That said, it was actually a 2-partition bucket he was dipping that lambswool wash mitt (and nearly himself) in! ...and didn't venture beyond that one headlamp

If I ever attempt combining looking after the kids and cleaning the car again (unlikely!), I'll be sure to make sure all rocks/anoraks/wire wool/etc. are well out of the way!

Bump

Forgot how good this car looked.

Haven't read all of this but as RS246's resident parking attendant, I have to inform you that you park like Amanda and therefore, you fail.
