What have you done to your MK 7 today ?

[kalimon]

Well I will reach the half way point of my lease at the end of the month. And I've taken the big decision to give her back and buy my own car. So today I put down a deposit on a 2nd hand BMW 330d Touring. A slightly sad day, but it's time I knocked the leasing on the head. Looking forward to actually owning my own car. A remap on the Beemer will be next!

Good move, and maybe if everyone followed suit, we won't have another financial crisis on our hands in the not too distant future!!

Treated my car to a new driveway, not quite finished but nearly there
 

That looks really well Kalimon.

Did you have a couple of manholes on your old drive that you had to move or work around?

Manholes now look like this.
Just need sanding now

Looks excellent kalimon.    Can't be having the car steal all the limelight. 

 must get mine redone.  Worst decision ever to go with resin bonded gravel. Live and learn.

Good on you for powering on through the split personality uk weather Was same here today, sun, rain, sun.....!!!

I don't think I've ever drunk cup of tea hot whilst detailing.

I'm not going to click through the link until "after hours" but I wouldn't mind betting that there was a few more tools involved than a Poundland duster Ms B! 
Nice to see the piano black looking dust free though. Wonder how long it'll stay like that? Bloomin' stuff.

Maybe a couple extra tools Mr Ex.    Still, amounts to just a dust and a hoover though.

Well worth the extra expense Kalimon - to keep the drive looking fantastic you may want to consider spraying on some 'Wet&Forget' you can pick it up at Costco or Amazon. It's fab stuff and it'll stop you needing to power wash the drive to keep it pristine
