My cars detailed for cheap! Gotta love mates rates!
I spent the last weekend at Gaydon Heritage museum for the annual Mini show.
I got talking to one of my mates who used to work for a car detailing company many years ago, and since then has just plotted about doing odd jobs etc. He has recently decided he is going to start up his own mobile car detailing company. During the weekend he approached me about detailing the Mini pick up and the A8 so he could get pictures of them up on his website (before and after etc) The real kicker he has offered me pretty dam good mates rates! I should really get my butt in gear and sort out all the niggley little issues with the 8 like the drivers door trim missing a few clips, the missing head light washer on the passanger side and the annoyinly deep scratches on the passanger side wheel arch. Once sorted and detailed I hope to get some pretty nice pictures of the Pick up and A8 together somewhere. I will post up as soon as!

Yeah, gotta love em. lol.
Its a good thing as it gives me the kick up the butt needed to actually sort the D2 out (as I have decided to keep it vs trade it in for a D3)
