  1. Smokey and sooty......I doubt anyone will own up to being spotted with that M.O.
  2. Polished our Mini's custom exhaust. 7 years young.
  3. ^After all these years the original N1 kit never fails to impress
  4. Will have to watch that again then. Thanks for the heads up
  5. As I parked up a bloke comes upto me. His son has a 350z and didn't believe him that he sees a sunset orange one in the area. He then proceeded to start a WhatsApp call as evidence. So.......Hamza.....if you're on here and now you can believe your dad

  6. Got the box set today. Bad Boys 1,2,3 The new blue Carrera 4S is nice But the original 90s one is to die for in my books Am I just a 90s guy through and through or do any younger members still prefer the original one? Ps.......them rims.....OMG.....THEM RIMS
  7. Lockwood and Greenwood in Manchester are open. I've got to arrange a service and MOT with them tomorrow
  8. Thought I'd add my findings here too Basically 6 weeks and 7 touchless washes later, it's still beading well. Lost maybe 60% slickness (using the "HEADPHONES" scale )
  9. So it's about 6 weeks since the Zed was washed with a mitt and the TW applied. Today was the 7th touchless wash (wheels and exhaust tips had mitt washes though). Car lives outside. Driven to work during the week. Although only the odd day of rain it still looks dusty and spotty. Same clean as before. Sprayed on Powermaxed Jetwash and Wax with pump sprayer. Jet rinsed off with the Worx Hydroshot. Gave a finer mist to show what beading is left..... No drying towel as it's not 100% clean. So the leaf lower again. Unlike the first few washes, the paint is starting to "grip" water specs more. Probably sap. Leaves tiny specs even with the blower that I didn't get the first 3 times. Here they are on the roof. You can't see them from a few feet away Car done as well as mitt wash on the wheels This will be the last update on this. It's my birthday next week and I'll be getting some "me" time to do use my Bilt Hamber fallout remover, Tac Systems Clay Cloth, Autofinesse Tripple followed by some Fusso. Then might do a 6 weeks touchless wash test on the Fusso But resisting getting the mitt out is SOOooooo hard
  10. Ending shows why he shot the man Ps. Sunset Orange just glows at night don't it just
  11. Welcome to the OC
  12. Hard to believe a "normal" manufacturer of humdrum cars can produce a gorgeous car like that. People say it's a dated old design......not me. Are those standard rims? Look TOO damn fine to be OEM
  13. I watched it on Netflix time ago.....hope it's still there.
  14. Got myself a cheap 1080p projector and screen for under £200 all in. Set it up and guess what the first disc I fired up was........ Not going to impress the home cinema expert but a cheap way to a 100" screen. Making me delve back into my disc collection though. Post up links to your favourite sci-fi scenes to remind me what to fire up next
  15. You seem to be spotting more Manchester Zeds than me. Hope they all wave back.
  16. Indeed. The red bonnet makes the white zed look wider and lower from the front.
  17. Spotted yesterday lunchtime. Exchanged a flash of acknowledgement. The red bonnet makes it look quite menacing as it approaches in the opposite direction
  18. Nothing to do with the filter......... it's all THE CAR
  19. Welcome to the OC Photos of newcomers Zeds are mandatory
  20. Click on the link to my original thread at the top
  21. Just power rinse and leaf blower. But today I was running late so used mineral free water I harvest from my dehumidifier to power rinse then drove off to work.
  22. An update to my original repair Photo of worn bolster on my 05 daily back in Feb 2018 After repaint 7 months later Today just over 2 years later Time for another touch up me thinks.
  23. After seeing this I think the LEE could even pull off neons
