Looking great Merc, and what is the bright light in the sky please? I've had no opportunity whatsoever to wash mine over the break, cos the weather has been absolutely terrible.

ur probably right bud ;)

[p fandango]

i don't think i cleaned mine in 2012 let alone 2013 lol

[JamesT5]

I cleaned mine today as I felt the outside needed another coat of wax even though it didn't wash up too badly. Thing is, I had to get the tar spots off again (I only did them a few weeks ago), I must have driven over some fresh tar but the good news is they came off pretty quickly as I kept the body work waxed up well before the winter.

Regards

James
