new car cleaned (pics 56k no no)

[ellio]

Well I thought I would give the car a proper clean today after picking it up Wednesday as the girl who had it before I don't think knew how to polish it half was still left on there lol. I washed with auto glym shampoo and conditioner the super resin polish then good old carnuba s1200 wax. After that gave the engine a bit of a spruce as i don't think that has been cleaned ever. Gave mine a going over as well

Looking very nice, the Arosa looks rather familiar...

...could have something to do with the fact ours is also Flash red, also an 02 plate and also has the SEAT rear spoiler fitted

Slightly off topic, but how do these little cars perform? are they nippy? i know they have 100bhp and weigh under a tonne so just wanted your honest opinion on every day driving etc, how the car performs, mpg etc etc


Cheers

Am looking at a yellow 1.4 16v sport chappy so want to find out how much fun they are to drive etc

They're a great hoot.. basically a go-kart with a roof, go for a test drive and give it a good rev, you'll be smiling

 

[Triple D]

wicked, im glad people have said that.

 

[ellio]

Yeah is a good laugh and when it gets to the high revs sounds so cool. I love driving it drones a bit on the motorway but put some music on and ya fine. Its not the fastest thing on the earth but is very good round the bends

Very nice mate

 

[lunalupi]

Don't complain about the droneing on the motorway - come out for a trip in mine, and you'll be convinced your's is the quietest machine on the planet Possible because you can't hear anything...I've noticed my ears start ringing! Eeep
