I agree! I think I would be scared to use that on the T but the results look awesome! Reminds me, I need to give mine some TLC.

Amazing. Wish I had the balls to get mine wet sanded.

There's a hand car wash just up the road from me on the bypass. It amazes me some of the cars that i've seen there. I particularly remember seeing a new M3 :shock: as well as various Mercs, Jags and Audis. Are they all mad?

You'd probably find that a fair few of the prestige cars at the car wash are company cars.
At the moment, Audis and BMW diesels make great company cars because they are cheap to the employee in terms of the company car tax. Better than Astras, Focus' etc.
Ever wondered why a new Mondeo is about the rarest mid-size saloon around on our roads?

These cars get treated like skips as they are usually the main family car and will be returned in a couple of years without liability. I have had a handful of BMWs, an Audi A3 at present, my Cooper S and they all went through automated car washes let alone hand washes.
Needless to say, the Trophy doesn't and neither did the Evos(!)
