Nice to meet you Dan, you wasn't around when we left so we apologise :o:

It's rare to get my 2 E30's together in nice locations so I went mad taking pics :P

A mint 318IS -

I also went mad again buying cleaning gear -

Image

How sad am I :o:

All in all it was a good day, I stumbled across plenty of people including a few old boys who had E30 M3's from nearly new 8)

A nice selection of BMW's old and new but I didn't take many pics and I don't know why :?

Thanks for the kind comments about the 318is, Its been my baby for the last 12 years. I met some really nice people up there. I don't know any of you really but if you see me there again then come and have a chat and introduce yourself. There were some really really nice cars up there its really good to get tips from you chaps. The Harewood and Tatton shows are the only ones I've taken it too so far. I'll be at Gaydon next month.
Hope to see more zoners there.
Phil

I've got 2 Meguiars sheepskin ones already, one for each car !!!

The sponge is to apply the Super Resin Polish, it works a treat when it's damp :wink:

Steve,

HD wax - £25

Super Resin Polish - £10

Fast glass 1ltr -£5

Tyre dressing 1ltr - £5

I've always been a big fan of AG and strayed to Meguiars but I'm slowly going back to AG.

I have used AG srp for quite some time, as far back as xr3i days..

my good lady uses all the fast glass on the house windows before I get chance to use it, 8O
the glass cream cleaner is hidden from her..
the green snot and vinyl cleaner is superb, I know guys in the motor trade who supply me with AG lifeshine products which is even better, :D
