Lovely looking car, how do you find the road noise with the 21's on, I have gone for the 22's but not so sure now ?

Thanks

21"'s are a nice halfway house in that they look almost as good as 22"'s but probably offer a slightly quieter/smoother ride.
For a car of this size and weight my preference is to ride on more air rather than less. Current...

Am liking the Mariana Black more and more. Just wish I could convince myself it's a practical proposition living in the country.

Really like that! very nice colour and the wheels look just right. Congrats. SVR 2018 in Santorini Black.

Nice, not a fan of dark cars, but the black with blue reflections looks nice

That colour is lovely, very similar to the carbon black I have on my BM.

What a great colour , must say I've had two black sports , my order intent is for corris one reason to have a change the other I felt the new model looks better in lighter colours ime now having second thoughts before I have to confirm my order spec by next week Help Help

Looks fantastic Senna would love to see a picture in the sunshine showing how swirl free it is. Bought mine second hand the previous owner was a haulier and it looks as if it was washed with the same brush that was used on the trucks. Now that the weather is improving I will give it a machine polish.





Senna I think your detailers would be extremely jealous of the quality of my products

Thanks sir.
Actually picked up my Evoque from Lee this morning after 4 days and many hours of machine polishing, detailing and final Gteq product.

Here's a pic of one of the black plastic three quarter panels towards the rear of the car. These scratch by just looking at them.

Here's what they looked like after Lee's wash and decontamination process. Swirls galore!

amazing job
i like it very much
but how you got this ugly monster swirl on ur car soooooo fast!!!!!!!

I don't think those C pillar covers look that good when they are fitted new at the factory. Question now is, how do you keep them looking that way? Mark

Agree they certainly don't.

I have an arrangement with Lee for him to come over once a fortnight to valet my cars.

Takes him the best part of a day to do all three and he charges £40 each for a full valet (wash and clean exterior and interior) which is pretty good value IMO as the hand car wash sand paper guys up the road charge £20 to ruin cars with grit filled sponges

I've also had car wash training and bought a few products from Lee so in the interim should the cars need to be washed in between his visits I will do it myself. Current...
