	Well i've had my volvo just under 3 weeks now and not once have I give it a damn good clean!! So today I got out and cracked on with giving it a good wash! Washed with Megs nxt gen shampoo twice over using megs lambswool wash mitt, dried with megs water magnet. Clayed the whole of the car including the roof using megs detailing clay and quick detailer. Then finished it off using autoglymm super resing polish. Couldnt be bothered to wax it today lol! Also got my spare wheel in the back on a ratchet strap too which looks kinda cool and even started polishing up the windscreen chrome trim with Autosol metal polish isn't finished just yet but if I keep going at it after a bit should come up looking a treat Next up is removing the left over sound deadening and hammeriting the interior black and also getting the seats out to give em a damn good clean!!

	The ratchet strap was orange purely by luck to be honest lol! One of suppliers for the company I work for had it in his van when he was delivering some stuff. Told him the situation and told him I was after a ratchet strap and he said "Can have this one if you want mate?" So I was like soundddddddd Goes quite well doesn't it haha! Yer mr Coxy your a bad influence lol! If only detailing could detail out the kinks in the door lol!

	5 spoke Revos? So underused/under rated!! I absolutely love 'em. Good looking motor as well. My brother had one of these as his first car. Pulled out of a junction and had the front end completely removed. Rest of the car was completely untouched, just 8 inches shorter!!! LOL

	Griffo, could you stick you're new pics in the old thread please old chap? It makes for a more interesting post when you can see the progress of each car - even if it is just cleaning. Thanks! ps. Original thread here.
