Hi Mike,
Yes, I upgraded to red a few weeks ago because I was jealous of yours!

i dont bother with putting the special shampoo in the flash gun,it just uses too much.put it in a bucket instead and its very good shampoo.the autodry feature is ace though and leaves a lovely finish,even on the windows.and theres nothing to stop you chamoising the doors,boot and under bonnet as well!
incidentally i bought some cheapo tesco car wash shampoo the other day(£0.79 per 500ml) and its very good with loads of foam!

Its really relaxing spending the majority of the day cleaning and polishing/waxing the car. Then carefully cleaning and hoovering the interior. Then wiping over all inside boot/door/bonnet pannel work.... Then wiping over engine components.... Then polishing alloys.... Then applying tyre dressing.... Then ensuring windows are smear-free.... Then....

Errr...

I think I'm obsessed.
