Sad/Good Day

[Penfold aka The Dealer]

Today i had an early finish from work at 2pm, i thought to myself what do i need doing...

Went to my mums car and i saw my Clio diesel and i thought suppose i could go about cleaning it before i sell it.

Took to the Graphics and started to remove them.... such a pain in the a*se. They are really stuck on well and aren't made to come of easily.

Me & charlotte spent about 2 hours removing them & we were left with abit of glue on the car...

Speaking to other instructor's about how to remove the glue we decided to go down the route of a petrol based chemical on a cloth to remove the glue, which worked a treat.

Took it to the local poll's for a £5 car wash and i am happy with the result, could do with another clean this week, maybe a nice polish to.

The sad bit was removing the "Nurburgring" sticker but i think it will be easier to sell with out it on.

This sunday going to remove the dual controls & put it up for sale on Ebay, Autotrader & piston heads..... unless one of you lovely guys & gals wish to buy it

Take it on track, I have been out in many different car's, and believe me there are plenty of every day car's out on track... not every car is a porche or a ferrari.

I remember overtaking an old Rolls last year the driver was on the phone and smoking a pipe...

Best bit was when mart was driving the car through the forest over a 3ft deep gash on the ground and saying "its ok lad's, i have done a 4x4 experience day"

At that point the car was only 6 weeks old to!

I very much doubt i will be selling this car to anybody from RTOC, but even so the car is very good, i wouldnt use it every day if i didnt trust it.

No expense spared when it comes to service's, tyres & brakes always replaced before ring trip's so there decent..

It will be a shame to see it go, but to whom ever gets it, will have a lovely car.
