Threw an Oily Rag over Car

Stunning car

Fusilier 5th June 2018 20:23

Thanks Les, owned the car for 12 years now, and when I bought it, it had 25,400 approx. miles on the clock, and has now got just short of 30,000 miles, so average around 500 miles per year, and it has always been garaged, and never goes out in the damp. On the other side of the mancave is the new Jag XKR, you can just make it out in the reflection, but that has got its cover on

Love it Stu, absolutely love it :drool4:

Have you changed the wheels.......sure it had the Freestyle alloys in the last pic I saw?

Very nice :drool4:. If you have any more of those oily rags, I'll buy one off you, they do an amazing job. Oh, and the man cave looks ok I suppose. :envy:

Great work as always Stu, :bowdown:

Got two set of wheels for the MGF, the LE Wheels and the 11 Spoke, and need to fit 5mm spacers if I use the LE Wheels so that they clear the 4 Pot Callipers, but 11 Spoke, don't need spacers (and also a spare set of wheels for the ZT), both sets on the right)

and for Cliff, you don't need one, as you have already got one, that you used on the Mini

How can I make my own oily rag that I can wipe over to get results like that?

Better yet an Amazon linky.....

That is the most expensive wax in the world, but I use much cheaper one's, and my favourite at the minute is putting on the Wolfgang Concours sealant, then leaving it for a day, and then put a coat of a decent wax over it

this is the sealant, and a lot cheaper than the Zymol
