It's been months since I cleaned this car last. After 4 hours, it came out good. That's even the bad side of the car

You should bang all of those figures into excel and make a pie-chart so you can visualise just how much you're spending on that car. You should be able to source something more economical yet still of interest to you?

E46 320d is something like that.

Let's leave Sobanek alone about his car and finances etc.
He explained it and seems to know already what he is spending and what he could spend his money on.
Cars and finances just don't mix

Had a focus in that colour too

Ye that colour was one of the few good things about my focus and then it started to go all patchy on the bonnet due to a bad paint job.

Jesus wouldn't be a great spot to head into the ditch when you are up the other end of the country and nobody around who you know to give you a hand.

Did you spray the splitter and grille on the Focus bp?

No previous owner did and who ever did it didn't do a great job as it was starting to fade although a machine polish would kind of bring it back up. Back spoiler was sprayed to as they were normally black plastic on the mk2. Truth be known the mechanic struggled to find a panel that wasn't painted on it but it was original underneath so I wouldn't say it had any major accidents just light tips.

Maybe it didn't get hit?
Looks like someone just went mad colour coding, a thing I always think looks bad unless its meant to be as standard. Too much red going on!

Well I think the spoiler looked well colour coded as the black plastic looked terrible on anything other than a black mk2 focus Id take or leave the rest of the colour coding sometimes you can have too much alright.

Just changed my E46 coupe 4-pot diesel for an E92 6-pot petrol. Just don't do the miles these days. At this rate, I'll have an F32 next, seeing as I had an E36 previous to the E46!

Very nice ciarsd! 325i?
