Sunshine, a new camera and my GTI
« on: April 08, 2010, 07:58:20 pm »
As we enjoyed such a lovely day today I decided in high spirits to treat the gti to a spring clean.

It's 4 and half years old now but it still looks as good as the day i picked it up (well better after the odd mod here and there) :laugh:

Proof you can enjoy a black GTI and proof you can look after monza's.

Pretty normal wash routine today topped off with my favourite wax pinnacle sovereign.  I've bought some Dodo supernatural recently but still believe this to be a far nicer wax.  Its still swirl free so no machine correction needed.

Sorry to bore you all with the same location as normal, i promise one day i will take some shots somewhere more exciting than my drive :ashamed:

The camera is a Panasonic TZ65 which with a 12x zoom is proving to be a great all rounder.  I've sold the SLR, pocketed £150 and got myself a camera which is far more effective with my photography skills or lack of!

The pics....









Cheers for looking guys

That is one clean car, are the pics photoshopped because the shine is unreal.

I use the quick fix tool in iPhoto which gives the pics a bit of a lift but nothing more than that.

Cheers for the comments guys :smiley:
