So,as it's a nice day,I got to work....
About two hours later,after a rinse with cold water,a soak in G101 and Tardis,a bucket wash with Megs shampoo,some wheel cleaner and I got to this....

Another four hours and a couple of ice packs to the shoulders later,and with the help of some Dodo Juice purple haze and some Poorboys BH,I got to this...

Cheers for comments chaps!
I hadn't touched the car with so much as a hose in around 4-5 months,so it was in dire need!


Also where in Scotland are you from buddy?
I'm probably as far away as possible...I live up in Orkney.
