Default All the 'Detailing' Guys

Go Out..

Get a Life..

Drive the Fnkjn Car..

Give your Moms / Wifes / Girlfriends a Break... Clean the House..

Cars are for Driving.. You know that thing where you actaully sit in them and move around this fine country of ours using petrol as a fuel and skill as a means of not killing yourselves..

Albanian Car washers do a fine job..

Sell your digital camera on ebay... Most of you say the 'photo' doesn't do it Justice anyway.. So why bother.

It's nice to go out and thrash a clean car, though.

I love it when people have little humours rants

He does have a damn fine point. I clean my car infrequently, but I do enjoy the result (its such a change). One polish a year, gorp at the car for a bit and then enjoy it

Constant detailing is a bit **** of course. But there's nothing wrong with taking pride in your car - a regular wash and the occasional 'proper clean'.

Personally my Impreza works hard and is driven every day, but I always feel better about it enjoy the car more when its clean. And of course we all know a clean car has at least 20 more horses and half a second off its 0-60. Psychological you say?!.....Nah, surely not

I guess this thread is aimed at me?

You're telling the 'Detailers' to get a life, then what the **** are you doing on here posting? Shouldn't you be out driving that filthy car of yours?

Zymol Royale Glaze

That Paul guy charges about £5K for a detail if I remember rightly! Have to agree with the sentiments of one of the first posts..! It's an Astra FFS!!

Go outside.

Take down your trousers & underwear

Make a big puddle of your own urine.

Go lie in it.

Being a naturalist I like being naked outdoors, besides lieing in your own urine is preferable to polishing your car in some rare quano!!!!
