Now, now... there's no need to brag.


Alas, It's merely an "extension". :)

Buffer by itself $220 + postage $13.95

Kit $290, including 4 pads & Menzerna sample kit, + postage $13.95
http://www.carcareproducts.com.au/product/car_care_products/rotary_polisher_kit

This polisher is a rotary, as opposed to a random orbital/dual action which I've been using for the last 5 years or so - two different animals.

Bring the NB Roger, let's have a crack at making it shine! :)

I got the Menzerna polishes in the kit as well, so we're looking good.

On my list so far I have:

Kev05 - headlights (at a minimum!)
MINX - specific areas to be advised
Zero00 - Return customer?

TTT's List:

CaptainNate

(Please bear in mind TTT is generously giving the limited time he has available)

Who else is in for a detail?

Just under 4 weeks to go, would like to get numbers finalised - and don't forget the social side of things. The more who come along to watch, chat, and just hang out actually make the day a success by providing moral support.

Dyno time also available for those who are in - I'm in because I'm dying to compare this car to the last one, but would like to give GT Auto a heads up on numbers if I can please.

Should be a good day!

Hey MX5ers,
Is there a fee involved for the Dyno Day, and can "Other Makes" join the fun?

I've got MattR and CaptainNate.

The skyline is going to a new home this weekend so hopefully I'll find an MX5 before the detail day.
Otherwise might need a lift or something.

Gotta start looking at some NAs after this weekend.

QLD'ers.... sell me your NA :lol:

Pete

I better let 'Pirate' bring the NB so he don't feel missed out!! Then I can give the 86 a run!!

Then again, last time we had 6 booked and only 3 turned up then the red NA got 'attacked'!! Love the new machine Pete!!

Oh, BTW now I have reacked this number of posts does that make me an 'expert' ? Ironically, my current number of posts on '86forums' is 200 haha

Mr The Pirate,

Of course other makes can join the fun! Car People are Car People, doesn't matter what you drive.

At this stage it looks like I'll have time for another three cars, as two are specific areas only, and not a full car as yet!

I'll be there from 8.30am for the setup, and hope for an early start.
