Spent the day giving my 997 cab a serious minting.Its only about 7 months old and done 4000 miles but could not believe how many tar spots and small marks were on it already(all now gone).Managed to squeeze my hands behind the wheels and under the arches and gave them a thorough clean using various brushes cloths etc.Gave the car a good polish and waxing as well and was pleased with the overall result after a day of bloody hard work!!! Bought some Snickers pants with fitted kneepads a few weeks ago and they took a lot of strain and kneeache away!!Will post some pictures later once I work out how to downsize them.

Or open the image in paint and strech to 50% of its original size (I think this quarters the size of the file), 33% makes it nine times smaller.

Then save.

Snickers pants are usually worn by electricians and have knee and shin pads built in and are also water repellant-excellent for car cleaning and polishing(saves wear and tear on the knees).Its pictures of the car I am trying to post,not the pants!!!

Used the stretch feature on paint(33%)Yes the interior does match the drive in the pictures but the colours are different in the flesh(interior a little bit oranger)

Wow - what a nice car, I am very jealous - does it have the full aluminum pack inside?

And did you get the hard top - I hear it's optional these days?
