just a quick wash andy, never had time to wax her.....
was going to on sat but after pibbow left mine i couldnt be bothered.......
still it did look clean but compared to woody, well what can i say....i saw his car from miles off, i needed shades......

You are right there Dem...Woody's car was something else.......It was like it has never been outside from the pics Adam posted....

 

[GransportFan1]

The word Want is not appropriate anymore, the word Need is more suited, thinking about borrowing some money to fund one, i bloody love them.

 

[Andyk]

Adam, I love those little cars.......Get one soon....The best car for the money...Soooooo much fun.....and the blue looks lovely...or black......Well any to be honest.


Adam, where are the SZ pics...Must have been some there.

 

[GransportFan1]

I do like the Blue best, suits it really well, spoke to a guy there and he said the black is nice but the paint is really soft on the black ones.

Yep there were a couple of SZ's there but didn't want to be sick. Dem and Frank wanted to tie me up next to the SZ and take a pic of me, i was having none of that.

 

[Woody]

Fella's, cheers for the kind words on the car. I must say, Adam's pics are very flattering!

I'm a bit dissapointed with the state of the GS at the mo. My nephew helped was it Sat, and I gave him a £5 for his help. I might give him a tenner not to help next time

Also, as I've been using it a lot, I've picked up a couple of things I need to get sorted - a scrape on the front bumper, a small dent on the bonnet etc which I want to get sorted. I say that, I do think its easy to get carried away with these cars... I get no end of stick for clay-baring, feeding the leathers etc.

Thanks again though lads, I'm chuffed you liked it.

 

[Parisien]

Feed away....clay bar all you want........its your pride and joy and we all love her!!!

[Woody]

Very true Frank. I draw the line at filtering the water first though......for now.

 

[Parisien]

...have you hard water or some other deficiency....unless you dry off quickly on a warm day its a BU55ER!


P

 

[Woody]

Our water is very chalky. I de-scaled the kettle a while back, within a week it was heavily scaling again. I have to dry my car with a damp cloth and a dry cloth. Pain in a, but keeps both the arms equally exercised!

 

[dem maser]

The 100hp is a must adam, even im temptd to sell the smart for it as ill be saving 3k by doing so....smart 7k 100hp 4k.....
Economy, speed what else you want

Woody interested to hear what you use to clean her with......From wash to wax....

 

[ZAM400209]

has anyone here ever seen a Panda Cross??

I nearly bought one a couple of years ago- quite a rare car.

Andy Heywood once decribed the Panda as being the most reliable Italian car money can buy...

 

[Parisien]

...can't say I have........as it has the 500s engine, my wifes 18mth old car has been Japanese like in its reliablity.


P

 

[dem maser]

The panda 4x4 is it not??
I like them but prefer the panda with a diesel, ive driven them & its a good car, safe, economical......

 

[Andyk]

Yep, remeber the Panda 4X4....It had good reviews if I remember right.

 

[Parisien]

Still 100s of them in Italy, once you go up any mountains.......

Dem, you're more than welcome mate, we'll get something sorted. To be honest, I have a pretty cack set-up, but what I lack in gear I make up for with enthusiasm!

 

[Woody]

Andy,

Off the top of my head, I used Autoglym shampoo, and the last wax was using Autoglym super resin polish with a qucik going over with Autoglym extra gloss protection.

Normally, again off the top of my head, I use whatever shampoo I have, then if I'm going to town on it (clay bar etc, which I would do maybe twice a year), I used Colinite 476 and Carlack. With it being black, it looks great for about 5 minutes....
