When I was in Portugal late last year I saw this cheap ARBO Carnauba Polish in one of the big Supermarkets, Continente or Jumbo, can't remember which.
It was only Euro2.99 so I thought it was worth a try. Anyway, I had forgotten about it until today, and seeing as it wasn't raining, (amazing in itself!) I thought I would give it a quick go on the Bonnet seeing as I had given it a quick wash the other day, but had had it covered since. I was quite impressed how it covered and how nice it applied itself on the paintwork, nice and smooth and creamy! Left it for a few minutes to dry off a bit and I have to honestly say I was impressed how it buffed-up quite quickly, and easily. So I thought 2 quid well spent. Off course we will wait and see how long it lasts, but it was really smooth and the polish cloth just slid off the Bonnet... I took a couple of photo's, not the best as it was in the shade between houses. So if you're in Portugal next time I would recommend it, if you see it... And back to bed...lol.

I changed the Auto Transmission Fluid on my V6.
I bought the car a month or so ago and although if came with "FSH" it was just stamps in the book, so I am working on the assumption that the ATF had never been changed. Anyway, it has now.

Washed it even though it was raining but think it deserved it after passing mot yesterday with only handbrake adjustment required.
