Stanky Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Had a good afternoon carefully washing, claying, waxing and polishing the Daewoo, cleaning all the glass, using the special trim cleaner on the window rubbers and other bits and finally carefully (slowly) cleaning the wheels with the magic cleaning gloop which failed to clean the Saab wheels. My arms and legs ache but I am very satisfied with my work. The Daewoo now looks really good. Tomorrow I'll turn my attention to the interior then get some pics of my work for the thread on the modernz forum. All thats left after this is another service to flush out the last of the manky old oil, and whatever has been flushed out with the new stuff over the last 2000 miles and then its pretty much as good as it can get. Its very therapeutic. strangeangel, adw1977, chaseracer and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fumbler Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Collected Land Cruiser. Much fun. Also made my Micra's bumpers black again. They were going white for some strange reason. Cavcraft 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerzy Woking Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Since I put my Saab up for sale, it has developed a couple of minor faults. Driving home from the FotU across country reminded me what a stonking car this really is, both in power delivery and handling. So I'm getting the faults fixed and keeping it. Took it to Abbott Racing yesterday, who were extremely helpful (unlike my local Saab garage) so booked it in for next week for them to properly check it over and fix the bits I know that need doing.

Its very therapeutic. I spent half a day washing,cleaning and hoovering the Subaru prior to its pregleg (mot) last Friday Must have looked like a really well looked after car as the tester drove it into the test area,turned the stereo way up,and had a little dance as he checked the number plates matched.... Nothing else,just the plates... Got my shiny new sticker for 35lev,about £15 to you guys Then went out and celebrated my 50th for the rest of the day Tickman, Saabnut, busmansholiday and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catsinthewelder Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 This is Norman He or possibly she is the only survivor of a nest falling off a customers wall in last weeks storms. Hopefully it can fly away in a few weeks with the wild ones. I hope it will take to eating insects as it is mostly eating mince at the moment.

clayts450 Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Note to self : when getting thoroughly pissed off with a stripped screw to the extent even an impact driver won't shift it, put spectacles on, look at said screw and then identify it has a hex-shape and can simply be cracked off with a ratchet and appropriate socket.
