What did you do to your car today?

Yesterday fixed my Karcher power washer which was broken for years... washed the Hawk and the Audi... and then was overcome with madness and treated both cars to a coat of Meguiars Liquid Wax... Several hours of "wax on - wax off" later and today can feel the aul' muscles alright!

Weather bit dull so maybe not the most exciting pics... but with the rain at least can see a bit of the excellent beading :icon_grin:

Yep, got it in halfords, about €8 I think and on 3 for 2 on cleaning stuff at the moment so worth getting, I found it pretty decent alright but I think a fine metal wool might be needed to get the same shine off the whole backbox.

Lookin well lovely car that. What model is the audi
[/quote]
Thanks fella...

Audi is a 2007 (B7 model) A4 Avant... 3.0TDI Quattro S Line, lots of toys, upgraded B6 Bilsteins and Team Dynamics 17" extra light wheels, plenty of power (for a Diesel like), comfy... but bit boring when compared with the Hawk. :whistle:
 
Nice one, must be some poke in her alright, have a a4 07 b7 avant sline aswell but i'm afraid only a 1.9 tdi pushing her on but still love the shape of them.
 
Removed the bonnet scoop as it had a couple of stone chips on it that were doing my nut in, it's getting dropped off tomorrow to be repainted and should be as good as new before the weekend.
