Looks great kalimon! Mine is bogging but will have to wait until the rain has stopped combined with a day I can be bothered....
That’s not the attitude: )

Yes it is.   :grin:

Car looks lovely.  :cool:
Thanks Rebecca :smiley:
Just discovered a giant bird sh!t on the windscreen :shocked:
It's been clean for less than 2 hours :laugh:

I’m always elated when I see bird crap on the windscreen if it means the paintwork has been spared.  :laugh:

At least you had 2 beautiful hours.  :grin:

I’m well into minus cleanliness hours with mine!   :cry:

Took car back to dealers for exhaust and noisy front suspension. Suspension has had bushes greased and exhaust is having the resonator box replaced. Only thing is it needs cut and a new sleeve put on to join back section to new resonator. Would have thought entire section would be replaced but master tech says not.

Picked car up and all appears perfect so far. Knocking noise on suspension gone, exhaust sounds better than before and they even managed to stop a rattle too. Very pleased with service at Pulman Sunderland can highly recommend.

Great news, I also had what I thought was a problem with my rear suspension which turned out to be an exhaust carrier causing the problem. As for other rattles I've got rid of all of them, except for the rattle of crutches now.  :angry:
