ardandy 0 Posted February 18, 2006 Cleaned with Autoglym Leather Cleaner and then wiped down with a damp cloth and buffed up with a dry one. Then I used Autoglym's Leather Treatment, rubbed in and left for a few mins then buffed up with a dry cotton cloth. My back is killing me! You can see in pic1 the before and after. Drivers seat has being done, the passengers only cleaned, not treated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He said to me that the previous guy that got him up at 5am and came to see it from quite a way away just wanted it to break up. The AC doesn't work but am going to get it tested for £35 by a specialist who comes to you. If its fine and just needs a regas it'll be £65 all in. Hopefully theres no holes in the pipes or anything! Spent £450 on mechanicals after I bought it, pretty standard C stuff, and £320 on a Cat 1 alarm. Other than that its being fine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_leon_ 0 Posted February 21, 2006 ok - i used this stuff and it lasted for about 2 weeks. Hate to say it - but I am looking for something that gives better results. Yours look good though theres no denying that! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
