Ah if only! Just a 2.0 derv drinker, 190hp, 300lb/ft, DSG gearbox.. currently averaging 50mpg with ~700 miles on the clock post delivery (8 miles on the clock at delivery)

So after a day and a half the detailing is finished - paintwork is now flawless with zero swirls, marks or blemishes; you can use it like a mirror.

The "SiRamic" coating is also so anti-stick that when I went to stick the PistonHeads logo on ... it won't stick

Well, that sounds like forty quid well spent.

Does it?   You still have to wash a black car after every journey to keep it looking pristine. It just takes a bit less effort if you've treated it first.

I could never own a car like yours. I wouldn't want to leave it anywhere other than in a locked garage. Can you imagine concentrating on your shopping when you just know some bastard is going to rub up against your shiny black car with their dirty coat or, even worse, their pooch is going to piss on your wheel.

This is something I had not really considered. I am learning the hard way that black cars are a bastard to keep clean.

Perhaps I should have gone for the 'Barbie pink' MX5 instead.....or snot green Astra.

Yes....you should. Being the magnanimous chap that I am, I will swap my practical estate for your impetuous purchase. I will carry the burden of constantly living in wellington boots and oil skins whilst emptying a small reservoir each week in the name of a clean car.
Please think more carefully in future.

PM me your address. I'll remove the dogs crate and soiled towels and drive down at the weekend.

Can I assume we are talking about a straight P/X?

I can't afford to give you a financial settlement as well.

Looks like rain    Dirty water splashing up off the road...getting all over the sills and doors.  Never mind......it doesn't show on snot green.

It's why silver is such a popular colour; they just go a dull grey

I owned a silver Omega. Apparently they are extremely rare.
