Today I;

Booked the car in for 4 new tyres
Sprayed inside all the outer door handles with lithum grease cos they keep freezing shut
Whacked a dose of injector cleaner in the tank (double strength)
Purchased a 36mm socket ready for a service in a couple of weeks
Got over taken (but only just!) by the ZT's smaller saloon brother, the ZS. Not sure what he'd done to it but it was belching out black smoke like a good un!

Today I sat inside dreaming of a number of things I intend doing to the 75 but it's nearly 40 degrees C outside so I just go through the process in my mind instead

Today I gave my 75 a thorough clean.

I Vacuumed the carpets and boot, cleaned the leather, cleaned the windows inside and out, and a nice soapy shampoo (supagard) wash and leather off.

Looks fabulous, and has a nice leathery smell inside

I've also treated the car to a wash, and a under bonnet wipe down.

Still contemplating fitting the 190 badges under the side repeaters.

Today I've replaced the retainer clips of the rear lights (Tourer), and I've fitted chromed pipes to the exhaust.

Pictures will follow in my mod topic

Took mine for a quick run after sitting on the drive for 2 months, (and it felt/drove just like the day I parked it) gave it a quick Wash & Dry and put the Cover back on....



Happy!
