I'll be the first to admit that I have pinched this from another forum that I use, but in this thread I hope to explain some good practices for washing a car that help in the prevention of inflicting swirl marks to paint.

If anyone can give me some tips that would be great!!! Cheers!

Does any1 else hate the fact that their car has a high mileage? i know its mostly psychological and mileage is relative to how well the car has been looked after but theres always sumthing in the back of my head saying 'STOP throwing money at this car and buy a lower mileage one'! just thought id see if any1 else shared my concerns :)

Right, I've got a pretty standard 40K miles UK TT in red with leather. It's in great condition but never been touched (original exhaust, shockers, everything really). I've added a poly bush kit, new calipers, discs and a decent piece of ICE. It's been dealer maintained from new and has had 14 oil changes!. Even the gearbox oil is bright pink!.
