Well Ive had it for nearly a month and what a pleasure it is to drive, still got a few issues with the electronic handbrake but slowly getting over that, and after turning the engine off I still go to take out the keys that are not there. Now what was i talking about hehe. Oh yes shes up for her first wash a polish tomorrow if the weathers nice and sadly Im looking forward to it. Well its either that or mow the lawns.

Steer well clear of sponges and shammy, microfibre all the way - and don't forget to post pics! It's an incentive for those of us who have had our cars a while to see how clean they could be, and aren't! I got a shock the other day when there was a security purge at my workplace and I got to see the underneath of the car in a mirror on a stick. Shocker.

I can definitely recommend Armorall Shield as well - one treatment a few weeks ago, and the paintwork still beads water and cleans up a treat several washes later.

I use Meguirs next genration car wash and Gold Class Caranauba Wax leaves a lovely finish and smells nice as well, lasts a good while also
