You'll rediscover your love for it all I'm sure. You've got one of the best LCR's on here. I've got a group of LCRs I rate on here and yours is right in there.

Cheers mate, that means a lot! It just doesn't feel like it to me at the moment. But like you say after a full on clean maybe ill be more interested. Will have to meet up over at AmD soon mate

Defo will make you love the car more. I like to do mine once a week if I can. Keeps me interested and it's easier to clean more often than to let dirt build up over a month or so imo.

I'll meet you over if I'm free when you go no worries mate. I just want to see your car sorted out and you happy with it! Lol.

Wayyyy overdue update....!!

So left my car in the car park for football training, an hour later I return and find this:

Looks like a screwdriver through the lock, could turn the barrel with my finger to lock / unlock the car. Tomtom and boost gauge gone, including the custom vent mount that took me bloody ages to make!

The didnt take the head unit or iPod that was under the center console, idiots!

One other Seat had their lock done and five other cars had their windows smashed in the same car park. Definitely looked like a pro job.

Very worrying how easy it looked to get through the lock!!

£170 for a new barrel matched to my key :(

Anyway, as the car was filthy and not been washed in months, it badly needed a bit of TLC. Saturday was a nice day so why not!

Really happy with how it came out.

The detail consisted of: Wheels washed, Car washed, dried, dodo juice lime primed, layer of dodo juice purple haze, windows polished, exhaust polished and finally a layer of dodo juice red mist. :D

Delock it, one of the 1st things I did.

Sounds like a smash and grab for as many as possible done at one go, little P R I C Ks.

Awesome job on the clean up!

Grrrrr.... I saw your fb status about this but still - reading it again makes my blood boil!! Sorry to see what's happened mate.

BUT.. the detail looks superb on the upside and she looked like she needed it!

Looks stunning mate. Are you popping along to the RR day at AmD in a few weeks?

Car looks sweet!
