Too her for a spin and a bath - then put her up in the garage for the night. Year round driving here. Feel for you seasonal drivers.

Collected my Z from a private sale in Edinburgh and drove her back to London. Amazing 6 hour drive. Got to clean her today and find out what everything does. 😃

Nothing to the Z but spent a bit of time cleaning, polishing, hoovering the wife’s 3 series! Probably the nicest it’s looked since the day we bought it! If you zoom in you will see it’s just started raining :headbang:

I aged the car by a year to keep the NZ theme going on the drive.

I treated my hood yesterday with Nikwax (Millets £8) A whole container was misted on and gently rubbed into the fabric. Today's rain simply bounced off. 👍🏻
