Anyone know what the load space area of a P38 is with the back seats fully down? More specifically, can I get a sheet of 8x4 in there?

There's always the roof. If you haven't got roof bars, put a blanket down and then gently tighten some straps through the doors before you close them.

Or you might just fit it resting on top of the headrests. I've managed all sorts of stuff in the past with some slightly odd driving positions.

Marty has blue LEDs throughout his. Looks very good.

I got a couple of sheets of 6x3 instead. Drove home with them in the back and a ten foot length of 2x1 sticking out the passenger window.

Wash it? You must have time on your hands

I wash mine just before the MOT and the wheels go from black to silver

I think you can get bulbs now with the resistor built in??

Do you people not have rain where you live?

Plenty of rain and lanes covered in mud and cow poo. Not worth washing it.

I figure if God wants my car washed I'll leave him to it.

It gets cleaned very rarely and never for very long.

There was an absolutely mint white Defender 90 parked next to me in Sainsbury's this morning. Looked gorgeous but I remember thinking keeping it looking like that must be a constant chore.

There has been a white L322 parked outside the local autoroute recovery garage for 3 weeks now. No sign of accident damage, so I guess it's an electronic problem. I can't see the number plate so I don't know where it's from.

I was gonna do the engine, gearbox and xfer box oils and filters on the Rangey but it started ****ing down so I had a beer instead.

Is that another P38 I see in the side of yours?

myfirstl322 · Dec 27, 2019

Sanded the headlights with 2000g and buffed em, near as damn it like new now.

Shimsteriom · Dec 27, 2019

And the before and after pictures are where?

Before...

I forgot the roolz....

After pics tomorrow if I remember

What you're looking at is a degraded laquer finish, needs sanding orf and buffed, like wot I didded.

2000g as a starting point is woefully inefficient, really need some 400 to start with then a few more grades in between, before 2000.
Farecla compound to bring back the shine.
May even re-laquer em.

Worst car I had colour-wise was gloss black. Looked gorgeous after washing. An hour later it showed every mark. White wasn't so bad, strangely. Silver is supposed to be best for hiding dirt.

Mine is Java black so gets washed once a year when I take it off the axel stands when I use it for the 3 months I am home. Looks great for a few days and then I give up.

Thinking of trying Sea foam to reduce carbon deposits, seems to be the only one that really works
