just come down from the garage, spent some time buffing my front lights looking a whole load better now, also done the front aluminium bit just behind the bumper all polished up, radiator top given a wire brushing, and front slam panel polished under bonnet, polishing the bonnet to do the best i can to get rid of tiny scratches but the bad stone chipping is taking over... needs a bonnet respray seriously....rear parcel shelf carpet has been out this week for a thorough wash and jet washing, getting a good wash tomorrow and another polishing with autoglym, and tyres to be dressed tyre pressures to be checked. car is never going to be a show winner but hey i enjoy it..... pack up my stuff and ready to go sunday morning.... see you all there really looking forward to my first Z3 / Z4 meet.... and i think Mrs Handsomejackuk is looking forward too... hope theres a few ladies there for her to chat too.....or she have her head in her danielle steel book....!!!!!

Cars now all ready for Zedfest. Not brilliant but better than it was.
Its been washed, Polished and waxed. All windows done inside and out, hovered inside, full wipe down inside and in the engine bay. Wheels taken off washed and sealed. One thing left to do and that is brush the roof down but that will be in the morning as no point tonight and then having bits all over it tomorrow. Now waiting for mozz to arrive for barbi and beer

You didn't hoover outside Bill!

 

[Redline]

Two cars almost ready. Two Washed and one waxed. All surfaces cleaned inside (Gail's car was really dusty with so much roof down motoring) but Hoovering yet to be done and seats yet to be cleaned. Engine bays cleaned. Oh - Windows still to be cleaned. The list gets longer. Going to need a day off tomorrow after all this work.
Gail has been busy too - things to enjoy tomorrow.
Both boys are coming with us - a family Zed day.

Edit : had just about finished and while I wasn't looking a neighbour cut his lawn. Car covered in bits and dust again

 

[Gail]

I have been doing my bit for our day at Zedfest tomorrow!! We're bringing a picnic so I've made some goodies. Even my hungry lot won't get through all this so there's bound to be some to share.

No hanging wall paper is the key

 

[Redline]

No hanging wall paper is the key

A bit excessive - hanging wallpaper on your car instead of washing it
Vinyl I hope

Nice one mate. @t-tony @Redline

 

[littlefeller]

but if i dont hang wallpaper ans do some painting i dont earn any brownie points, there is method in my madness.

 

[Eddie Zedder]

Final inspection!

 

[Grumps]

Not done a thing yet. Been knackered all day so couldn't be bothered, which means up at 6 tomorrow to get the zed washed.
