Default Look I've cleaned my car.

Hi all,

I have finally got round to cleaning my car, its amazing what 1/2 an hour do with a sponge,car shampoo and a leather and it is so satisfying to see the results at the end.

See if you can spot the postwoman spayed into my paintwork.

Hi again,

Now that you washed yours , I guess I will have to wash mine again to have the same result . Lovely color again, by the way

I don't use a sponge to wash mine as it makes streaks in the paint when it slides over dirt. I use a mitt. See link herebelow from .org website for the proper way to wash the car.

Cheers,
Majed

Happy cleaning then, lets see yours afterwards.

You use a polo to clean your car, just shows it has more use than just sucking!!!!!

It's a mitt not a mint... I don't know how I typed this...

This is a picture when I washed her last time (1 month ago). Hoping this weekend we will have some nice weather, I'll take her for a wash just for the pics...

Ok, I promise next time I'll wash her, I will post more pics with the inside this time.
Incidentally, I come from Lebanon originally. I went there to an American high school and University. Sorry to disappoint you, I'm not the typical French guy, although I have been in France for 20 years now (with French Nationality), I kept my fluency in English and taste for good cars!

Majed

I bet you don't see many R75's in and around Pairs, they are all Citroen's and Renaults aren't they?

I keep promising my old woman I'll take her to Paris one day for a dirty weekend.

What are you waiting for? I took mine to London just before the meet in Beaulieu last May. Be sure to bring the 75 too :lol:

By the way, according to figures here, there were around 21000 75s sold in France since 1999, all motors and models included. However, there are only 3 other ones than mine in Steel Blue, of which one only is also a 2.5 V6+Auto and the rest are diesels (I was informed of these figures by one of the main dealers here)
