Best time to wash the car when it is dull, as long as it is not to rainy, do it in between showers.. Send your car round anytime

Awww bless, thank you :) I don't use water on mine tho. I actually quite enjoy it once I get started ... it's the thought that's the worst bit !!!!!

Yep, that's it. You get it in Sterling @ BoD as well, but think it's cheaper on Ideal World TV.

Hi

It's good stuff but I still use some shampoo.

Hey Jackie

Was off to circuit training this morning and saw your car in your drive.

Nice colour :)

Glad you like it. I love it now, I must admit. I was going through Culter on Saturday, the sun was shining and I passed one going the other direction ! It was a 5 door tho. Saw the passenger pointing. Guess it's not very common ..... YET !!! Hope it stays quite rare and not everyone is as daft as me and will pay the extra money for a colour !!!!!!!

Just filling in the paperwork to get my own plate on it, so i'll get that sent away today.

Hi Jackie

I don't have my own plate. I'm going to get ones with the Scottish flag on it though.

Second week of my holidays and was off to Fittie this morning for some photos. Saw a nice Zetec S parked there, two door, 17" alloys and in the mustard colour.

Have to say it looked pretty nice. A colour I would not have chosen but after seeing on in the flesh it looks good!

I bought my plate in 1993 I think it was. Just fancied it. so an impulse buy you could call it !!!

Yeah, I saw one the other day in that colour. I wouldn't have it, but my Mum loves it. Good job we aren't all the same tho eh ???

Gary

Too bad i live in holland ;)

Where abouts would you meet? I stay 25 mile south of glasgow in kilmarnock?

Hi all

Would have to be around the Aberdeen area for me unfortunately.

LeroyE, saw a Zetec S same colour as your one today......looked real nice in the flesh!

Gary

Hello

Toying with the idea of getting the calipers painted red.

Photoshop creation:

Photoshop Red Caliper

Gary

Doo the callipers but leave the rear drums black! And I think aberdeen is a little too far for me lol! Around 220 miles :(

You should meet in Dundee or something ..... it's only an hour from Aberdeen and east enough from Glasgow as well. Gives yer cars a wee run at the same time !!!

Hi

After seeing it in the flesh it is a colour I would seriously think of getting.

Was going to take a photo of it but not keen on doing that in case someone is watching.

Hi

Yes, something to think about for the future. I stopped off at Dobbies at Stirling a few weeks ago. That's a nice place for a photo opportunity.....and buy some plants at the same time :P

Hello

Think they are standard on the Titanium but I have ordered some scuff plates today:

Why they are not standard on the Zetec S is beyond me :(
