Shiny Car

[FarmerPug]

I left the car parked this morning at a place, a few hours later i went back for the car, was deprived of £25 and given a new car:





A bit of a rip off, but its good to see the old pug still can look good.

nice motor you have frank. one day, yes ONE day i will own a nice D9.
but not for a long time because my D8 is to bloody good to part with

wish it wasnt in a way because i want a more powerfull HDi 110

[FarmerPug]

110 is fairly adequate, but i wouldnt refuse 136.

Looks very smart mate.
Get your self some Greased lightning and keep on top of it itl save you throwing money out to have it cleaned,

[FarmerPug]

Your right lozz i need to do it myself.
£25 should be enough to get a good polisher.

all you need to do is keep on top of it,
get a good couple of coats of wax on it and then it will look after its self.

ipolish mine once or month 2 or 3 coats of polish and then just handwash it every 2 3weeks it looks like its been polished everytime its been washed then .
but this Greased lightning stuff takes out all the graft as you can get the stuff on the plastic and glass and it dont matter,
Maybe im getting lazy

id also recomend having a tub of t cut colour match too,
all the blue cars ive had tend to show all the little stone chips /marks after being polished
colour match is good for masking them

[FarmerPug]

I do keep the interior as clean as possible the outside im not too good at.
The bootlid, bumper, and that door will need repainted, and there is a few small dings that need sorted, if they were fixed then id take more care of the bodywork.

all cars have dings mate.
you couid have abrand new car and one or 2 can apear no matter how much you look after it,

dont let a few dings put you off polishing it mate,
its a nice motor

frank is there a law in NI with number plates .

i notice in 1 of the pics the reg plate on the car in the background is not standard font ??

[FarmerPug]

you mean that passat?

some polish people are driving it, i dont know much else about them.
Apart from the fact a number of them about 6 were in the garden of my dads house, which has a sizeable wall around it, they soon got chased.

Although there is many different fonts available over here.

[Gary406]

so no law on fonts ?

[FarmerPug]

not that im aware of. Nope.
The cars on gumtree over here have them a lot.

[Gary406]

i wish UK had no font rules. in UK we have a strict Rule.

same font as you have now and no different, if police see you have different . you will be stopped and made to change.

[FarmerPug]

I like the normal font, its easy to read.
Comic sans is a popular choice over here.

[Gary406]

cominc sans is a good font.

BUT in UK police wouldnt be happy .

i got away with german font on my old reg (before my irish private plate)
for about 8 months,

i had coppers behind me but german style isnt to bad so never got stopped.
