1999 Volvo V70 T5
Nautic DreamLOL, yeah. The dirt just hides all the scratches, and the big problem is the car was sat under some trees/by bushes for 18 months so the roof is a state with really ingrained crap that has gone too deep I fear. And the wheels are in a state (next job on the list, just got to decide which colour)[/QUOTE]
I'm told that WD40 is the answer to bird crap stains, has anyone tried it? I've tried various products on the stains on my roof and bonnet (no thanks to a previous owner) without success but have yet to try this.

Thanked 2,643 Times in 1,928 PostsLooks stunning, which is always the case when I see pictures of this car tbh. Not a fan of the headlights but you could do alot worse and it's all about making the car your own. I'd put money on the fact that regardless of how good it looks in the pictures it still looks miles better in the flesh which is difficult to believe when it looks that good in the pictures...
