Gave him a wash

Post by HYFR » Mon Dec 28, 2009 10:06 pm

I got a pressure washer for xmas, so gave the car a full valet with a wax and gloss sealant.

I need to get a foam lance so I can go that cool snow foam thing. Thats on its way.

I also treated all the leather with liquid leather and the car is now mint.

Until I drive it ! :boohoo:

Very nice, love the B7 in Avus. Good choice and good effort on the TCL front, get the foam lance, you'll find yourself washing the car for fun!

Very nice David. Black and grey have always been my favourite colours but Avis really shows off the shape well :cool:

cheers

yes before buying, my 1st choice was Daytona, but honest to god, i really think the Avus really shows off the curves on the RS 4

It looks like a DTM car up close, so low and wide

plus, its good to be different 8)

Looks awesome! There is a black one going around town near me now which must have a Milltek or similar, it sounds insane!
Has definitly changed my view of the V8, Ive never been a fan before....

As for the snow foam, dont waste your money, its way too over rated and pretty much just a gimic to look good more than actually do anything worthwhile

Looks awsome!
I love these cars in any colour, Mine got a miltek for christmas non res, non valved.
it maybe a bit to loud for me but sounds great! Bought it second hand for half the price.

Yep, I bought a foam lance and snow foam and its been used once. Not worth it.

Invest in a couple of buckets, a grit guard and and two mitts instead is my advice.

What has the sat nav done to upset you, it's the only bit looking un-loved....
