My LCR got invaded by ants!

Parked too close to the verge, all over the engine bay and a few inside.

Treated my Cupra with a fresh set of Goodyear Eagle F1 assymetric 2 tires on the front :rock:
Seem to be OK... only got them for 40km now so might get better the coming 150/200 km. I have high expectations about them though..

LMAO on the plaster thingy on rear door :lol:

Nothing at all, sadly. It's in the garage as someone ran into the back of it recently. Sad to say, I'm actually missing it. The courtesy car is a 2.0 l Vauxhall something or other (haven't been bothered to even look). When the chap that brought it ran through the key points, I kept saying "my Seat's got that", "my Seat's got that". I asked about fold in mirrors, he said yes, you get out the car and push them in. I said aren't they automatic? He replied "it's not a BMW". To which I answered "my Seat's got that"!

Haha, quite funny! A lot of 'cheaper' cars are coming highly specced now, and some features even standard which BMW charge for!

Fully cleaned inside and out.
Front wheels off - 2 layers of poor boys wheel sealer and 2 coats of HD wax.
Cleaned engine bay.
Cleaned and fed the leather.
Dressed rubber, cleaned glass etc.
Supernatural waxed the 3m clear vinyl stone chip protection.
Cleaned and wax-oiled the sills for some added protection.

Sparkling now, just need a photo:D

Gave it a blast with the powerwasher (as it looked like I'd been rallying) then a proper wash and spruce up. All clean and shiny again. :)

If you take a look over on detailing world, its not recommended to feed modern leather within cars as they are already protected and the feed attracts dirt. . .

Whats recommended then to "clean" the leather with

i need to do mine
