I see,
to change the thread ever so slightly what Meg's super degreaser like for cleaning the sills, noticed the wee lip inside holds a fair amount of road crud.

I'm not to keen to be honest , I always find auotglym engine and machine cleaner does a good job, just spray it on and agitate with a brush

Same here, there's nothing wrong at all looking after your car properly. I'd buy a used car from 182 as he clearly takes pride in his car and spends his free time looking after it well. Good on ya mate.  :smiley:

Nothing wrong with removing the inner arch every now and then, stuck mud is a right rust trap :) Blue nothing wrong with your cleaning either :)

Probably got lost in the "Great Crash of 08
