:) Well as some of you know i sadly wrote off my posi blue westcoast :(
Anyway.
This is my replacement car
its a 1.6 3door Ford Escort
Thought i'd post some pics in the car care section as i am very happy with the finish. To clean it i used maguiars gold glass range and a clay bar and polish.

I do miss the saxo.
but i am happy with this.

Another reason i posted this on here, was that i used techniques and advice from members and polished bliss.

Likin it how long did that take ya? Spent 4 Hours on mine last night, problem is 4 hours feels like a rushed job now. Specially after the usual 16 hours we spend in prep for a show.

Thanks, as for escorts, i have never been a fan of them. But i found this one, and there was just something about it i fell in love with.

As for cleaning i reckon it took me about 4-5hours (but it was split over a couple of days)
Very happy with it tho, and for a escort i am very impressed with it as a car.
Altho i do miss my saxo in some ways

I still cant get over the clean, but one problem i have now is that dust seems to be attracted to it, but its just sitting on the wax, so i need a car duster, lol.
I used to dislike escorts, but this has changed my mind! saying that, there is some shocking escorts out there!
