My sisters boyfriend was changing his car yesterday and I said that I'd give it a wash for him so he'd get a bit more money for it. :y: I new it was not in great condition, he's had it for over 4 years, he's a farmer, lol! and it gets taken to do general farm stuff everyday:n:
Its a little Cinquecento, not exactly a massey fergusson :P
Anyways, I got it at 9a.m last tuesday, I then dropped him off at the farm and started! What I found was pretty bad :p

Anyways it all looked pretty shocking! Was waiting for a mouse or something to come out of the seats.
but I'd wanted to have a go at his car for a while to see what standard I could get it to ;)
I gave it a good going at, started at 9:30ish and finished about 5:30.

I was happy with the results, and he was even happier, he says its never been that clean!
In all honesty it looks O.K in the pics but it still wasn't amazing, but a lot better than it started the day! :y:
I also got some help off a mate who came around for the afternoon shift.

Yea, fair play i wouldnt go near it. random choice for a farm car though like you said, arent they 800cc of raw italian power?

thadogg
2nd April 2007, 23:06
Think their 900cc, not that it makes much difference! I had one as my first car and they are rapid, lol!

I have to say its a huge improvement from what it started like.

I hate seeing cars like that, suppose on a farm its to be expected.

The car is used to do all sorts of random jobs, by the looks of the boot its used as a hen shed at times! Also bear in mind that the 5th pic down is what was under the mats. when he got some new mats he just threw them in on top of the old crap, and didn't bother cleaning it out!

The thing wasn't as dirty outside after the Wyedean, but the engine bay was covered. Must have been when we were stuck in the ditch!
