If I could see outside in the dark, I would go and wash my puma, but it will get done sometime over the weekend. smile.gif

I want to get out and clean my Milly, but some plonker has parked in my space, so I can't get there and my hose won't reach to anywhere else. mad.gif

I would have done the same but, The service and new tyres complete with a 414 mile round trip for the aforementioned took all day, was up at daft o'clock as it was to get there on time. Only to have to wake my bl**dy mechanic up comp.gif Stiil he done a fab job, after a few coffee's first. cool2.gif

PumaBuild washed mine for me early in December biggrin.gif It's filthy again now, do you think I can make a warantee claim against them?

Otherwise, there doesn't seem much point in washing it again until April really.

Do they do a proper wash and wax job, or is this just spare moment thing? biggrin.gif
