Had a new tyre fitted due to pot hole damage. ATS said over 20 cars have been in the last day or so from the same pot hole... 2 more turned up while I was having mine done! Been filled since though.

Likewise! Great for being able to do some car stuff after work while it's still light and early [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]

Quick spray with Mer fast detailer and a coat of AG EGP, it could do with a wax prior to EGP, but, it can wait another few weeks more

Week off work, seeing as today is likely to be the best day weather wise of the week, decided to clean the car and then for the first time take some pictures of the car away from the driveway !
