Cleaning my car so I can sell it. Should do it more often as stuff is growing on it. Baffles me as to why people do this for fun (or indeed at all). Need an mot too as I've just found out it ran out Christmas eve. Haven't driven it since then which is why I'm selling it.
Mine came out ok but haven’t polished it yet…

I did polish siobhan’s as I scratched it a while ago when I drove it in to my daughters car. Happy with that as it’s my first effort with a da polisher. Won’t be making a habit of it though as it’sa deathly boring way to spend an afternoon.

Fuckin'ell, does a 200bhp car need a whale tail that big?
Fit a smaller wing and eat more pies instead. Works for me.

This is a 330, didn't come from essex though. It's quick enough but doesn't have a turbo to explode. I think it's a fat lump but I really like driving it with the roof down and she loves it which is the main thing.

I had an E92 330.
For a supposed 272bhp, it felt slow.
Can't blame her in doors for wanting a convertible.
I flippin' loves my SL, actually drives better with the roof down, imho.

I love convertibles, been ages since I've had one. This was the last one, so much fun but got all my weekends back when I no longer had to keep it running...

Doesn't look like the kind of thing you can lord it up with in the Lidl car park.
Big White Merc, Sun glasses, roof down, cruising to the local Beefeater for a shandy on a sunny day... when you can't be arsed to put the leathers on. That's what convertibles are for

It's funny as there are none over here. The sun would fry you. The only ones are the Fiat thingy hire cars for the tourists.

No, it was rubbish at nearly everything unless you really needed to scare yourself shitless for some reason. It had 400bhp. Was good at combe though...
Hmm, I want another convertible now.
