I started to nod off when he snowboarded it, or something similar, then noticed how far the scroll bar on the right had to go, so gave up. It was a bit like watching one of those Ashes to Ashes type programs - the late 60's / early 70's Opel, the current Vauxhall thing, and the 1980's highlights in his hair! The most interesting thing on there was the red Opel GT/J in the Vauxhall dealers, a car I very nearly bought when I was in Germany, but got a Spitfire 1500 instead. |

if i had 1% of this guys enthusiasm and patience not to mention time, my car would be 100% cleaner but i couldn't be bothered to take and upload that many photos nevermind spending all that time in the garage. i think his attention to detail is exceptional but he's wasted it on an astra  remember... you can't polish a turd

I say fair play to the bloke... Yes it is definately obsessive behaviour but I would love to have him "detail" my tired old 928!

Maybe hes in the wrong line of work & should be a detailer. He could clean my car. Might not fancy the bill though

It was worse than reading War & Peace at school. How many pictures and how long to upload. He must be divorced, single or otherwise focused get a life, I have always enjoyed cleaning and sort of detailing my cars but I could not be that bothered, I suppose the reason his old VXR held its value was due to the fact it had no miles on the clock after 12 months being detailed. |
