the attention to detail is a bit OTT really though isnt it... at what point do you stop having a good looking and clean motor and start having something which you cant take out and thrash cause you're worried about a spec of dirt getting on the wheel arch?

he was also spraying that hose thing against his paintwork VERY hard... he might have ingrained a half mm fly poo into the clearcoat? :undecided:

does anyone else cringe when they drive through a puddle... or is it just me?  :huh:

Nice looking motor, but it doesn;'t look THAT much better than a good proper clean and polish.

I'm sorry but he really needs to get a life!

Must admit it was clean but the white did'nt show all the work that he had put in in my opinion. Thought the colour of his old car was better.

Can't knock the guys determination and drive  :shocked: Regardless of what anyone thinks that is an amazing thing he has done, so focused! Yeh many people will say ''get a life'' but if that is his life then who are we to judge? Fair play mate!

Just showed (some) of this to Mrs Green just to prove im no where near OCD (as she tells me frequently!!) when it comes to cleaning my car compared to some.  :grin:

Top marks!!  :cool:

Yep weathers looking good here too, will try to get out to try the G220 on some swirl marks on her Polo today.

Also don't forget some pic's this time NewGolf or you know what TopCat will be like with his "you must really own a poxhall" stories again  :wink:

if your gonna do that to a car at least do it to a colour thats gonna show the hard work gone into it! theres not really much of a difference unless you get the bi-nocu-lars out.

imagine what the vauxhall dealer would say if he tried to give the car back for that blemish :laugh:
