Was great meeting you guys again! Paul your 8 was an absolute pleasure to work on, it's in excellent condition! Has to be the nicest selection of mods I've seen on an 8 and in the best colour too! Tho I might be biased on that ;)

Ian you must let us get our hands on your gorgeous MZ custom R3 next time! Deffinatley going for a night on the tiles with you lads next time :thumright:

Don't know, but at nearly £200 a time (from GSB's post) it would have to be a hefty one for me to indulge. :oops: :(

The cars on this thread do look amazing though =D>

I had my car done because the paintwork was very rough from all the grime and Aircraft Fuel all over the car in the last 12 Months :(

I live about 15mins from Gatwick Airport :!:

My biggest discount was about £500 Image because it was far cheaper to go up North to have the car done than have the whole lot done down here :(

The GT still looks fantastic now Image

I wouldn't hesitate to take my car back up to Dave and Jamie again Image

Thanks for the endorsement Nigel, your car looks really good with the new stripes! And the blackfire wax is doing its stuff nicely =D>

I've just come back from a week away in Devon. Never been down that neck of the woods before it was lovely but my god how bad is the M5!?!? Never again will I drive on that motorway, nothing but traffic jam after jam and nobhead drivers! The amount of people sitting in the outside lane doing 60 with nothing on the inside of them, wow! Thankfully I was in my merc not my 8 so I had some degree of comfort.

Ian that was the auto detail premium wash and wax you used, glad you agree it's better than the meguires! It will be for sale shortly :D

I have to be careful what I say as I'm not a trader on here yet but rest assured I always look after rx8 owners, wether a member on here or not.

Nice one Dave,let me know and I'll take a good lot of it.Your Merc looks the business,myself and Paul were drooling over it when we were over,beautiful interior too 8) Plus 1 on the stripes Nige,they do look good,TBH I'm not a fan of stripes on cars but the more I look at them the more they grow on me 8)

BTW Dave,delighted with the dent/ding removal,looks sooo much better now when I detail it,lovely and straight.Great job on that nasty dent near the roof too,that was a biggie,some crow with a dodgy curry the night before really did a number on it but it came out great

In the Photo they look White #-o ,but are in fact Silver to match the Side ones =D>

The idea with these Stripes is they have a whoosh effect over the car Ian :P

I was staying in Paignton Nigel, if I'd had more time I would have come rounds to Jay's when you were there for a catchup.

Cheers Ian I love the merc, can't fault 670 miles to a tank either! It's amazing what a difference the dent removal made and it will have added a few quid to its value too, I wasn't sure that top dent would come out god knows how it got there #-o :lol:
