Actually passed a Navarra saloon a few Fridays back coming out the town at Carron Ironworks around 4:30ish and wondered if it might of been you?

Kept an eye out in Tescos car park too

It was me mate if it was a couple of weeks ago. I do recall seeing a motor like yours but assumed it wouldn’t be you for some reason. Was at a leaving do (soft drinks for me) and the Mrs wanted me to divert via Tim Hortons for a coffee to take home. Took ages at that time of night. So there you go, one sighting after all :thumbs up:

Haha, you just appeared out the queue of traffic, only seen the boot and back door
Mines not been cleaned since Feb so the dirty car might have thrown you

The Mrs stops for coffee there too on Friday after the nursery pick up, don’t see the attraction myself lol

Timmy Ho's is more about holiday memories from our trips to Canada to be honest - I prefer the donuts :yes:

Whats your thoughts after a few months of ownership fella.

Loving all except the running costs tbh. Fuel economy much worse than my GTI was, thought it would have got a little better now I’ve dont about 3.5K miles but still getting only about 19mpg daily back and forth to work and around town.

Ceramic coating plus ibis white is so much less stress to keep clean too, not forever worrying about swirls and holograms in the paint (although I do have a damn stone chip in the middle of the bonnet )

The coilovers and res delete have livened things up and makes it more fun to drive

Talking of driving it ...

Surprised at the low fuel economy mate, I get average 31ish and I often make it sing, but to be fair it still does better than my brothers 05 Corolla 1.4 lol, he is averaging 30mpg and it has 3 x less power. Car still looks sweet mate.

It was a lovely sunny day and I had a wee drive to a local park. Seeing as I had washed my car yesterday and it was still gleaming I couldn't resist taking a few photos. I love this colour.....it really does sparkle in the sun. :sunglasses:

How did you manage to cleaning these rims? They look like new. I have the same rims on my sportback and I can say that cleaning them is PITA. Do you use some strong chemicals or just a brush and a lot of swearing?
Detailers i see on YouTube swear by the Bilt Hamber Auto Wheel with the EZ Wheel Brush, and followed by the Bilt Hamber Korrosol. Worked a treat for me, wheels on mine have done 12k, look like new.

I use Autosmart Red 7 and a power washer, never used a brush on them.

Looks great Ron!
I washed (Citrus pre-wash / snow foam / fireball easycoat) mine too yesterday as it badly needed it but didn't take any pics and now the weather isn't great.
