bcstudent 0 Posted February 3, 2006 The problem with spelling mistakes is they make the search function partially redundant. Apart from that it's all good. I still see no pics... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

double-6s 0 Posted February 3, 2006 more my style Kev. cursed with a bloody black C though! :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted February 3, 2006 I love black Cs and black cars in general ;-) A pain to keep clean though..... my colour seems to wear mushy grey road grime quite well :-) Just seems pointless cleaning it this time of year as the rear wheels are black with cr@p in no time and I can grow potatoes in the muck that accumulates in the arches and on the sills!

double-6s 0 Posted February 3, 2006 LOL it's funny, but my C is the only thing i give a monkey's about other people's perception of! i couldn't give a stuff what anyone thinks of me, my clothes, my musical taste etc, but i feel awful driving down the road in a grimey C!!!! wierd ;) i gotta be completely honest here, i think i may be getting a bit obsessive!!!

Furkz 0 Posted February 4, 2006 double-6s, you will have many bird if u bling ur car right :lol: sorry but black C isnt an excuse,,,you can always give it a quick wash regardless of drying, polishing etc i dont even bother using wax or polish on mine this time, only a full on couple of coats at the start of winter then a big clean in spring... Just give it a quick wash every few days and its all shiny Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trig 0 Posted February 4, 2006 Dragon green doesn't wear dirt very well at all so I have to keep it fairly clean. When i'm driving it regularly I wash it once every 3 weeks or so.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
