After doing aprox 1000 miles over the last 2 weeks in all the rain and crap weather, my car needed a damn good clean, so i decided that i would do it this morning.
I never took any pics to show how dirty it was before i cleaned it, but belive me it was filthy.
Hope you like?

Cheers. Considering i just washed it and went over it with Quick detailer it has come up as good as a layer of half decent wax.
Bet it will be filthy by monday night though :(

Thanks mate, i still need to do the inside of mine, but i'm suffering with man flu, so couldn't be arsed.
I got it mapped by custom code, and fitted a K&N panel filter. Thats all it took, and now it flies :clap:

looks good mate, nice and shiny...did mine today too :) there is just something about black cars, when there clean there lovely, moment you drive down the road, and hours of work wasted :( oh and i can imagine the state of it before :) had 2 weeks worth on mine, looked al dull and horrible.

Thats the worst thing about black cars. They look fantastic when they are cleaned up, but only takes a mile or two to ruin that finish.
Worth the effort though.

Looking very good! Can't beat shiny black cars :D As said though, just a shame they don't stay cleaner for longer!

Nice exhaust too by the way. I'm not usually a fan of that twin-pipe style but that looks really good :)

Not bad for a standard exhaust.

Looks nice that Davey, i guess that's the preparation work from the detail still having an effect. Every time I see a shiny black car, i wish i'd bought one - until i see one dirty then i know Platinum is the right colour ;)
