Might be, I don't know. I may give it a good MER polish on the bonnet. :cool:

However, I do think Dacia have got it right with that Spring fing of theirs. Small, cheap, reasonable miles. Most other leccy cars are monstrous great things with too many doohickies to drain the battery. Like they say K I S S.

TBH I wouldnt bother, fresh coat of paint on the pipes. Whos gonna see/know/care? (the answer is not you) If you really want them to run on top of the skirting they will be more visible even if smaller pipe. Yes there will be extra resitance to...

Fresh coat of white paint on the pipes, will make it look neater with a lot less work.

Problem (maybe) Looking to replace these pipes from the pipe cover to the radiator. 15mm to 10mm elbows then 10mm micro pipes along top of skirting boards to rad. Reason is so I can lift pipes higher and get tighter bends to rad valves, should...

When peeps polish cars they normally does the bonnet first. Often too much. So the lacquer wears finner first. Hence paint blemishes tend to show up on bonnets first. Just a fort.

Well the other panels are all fine so I think it is just the bonnet. It does look nice though (overall).

The roof? Just a thought if thay used sea foam and it dried on in hot sunshine

Was it like it before the clean ? THAY may have used the wrong stuff or to aggressive cleaner

Don't spend it all at once.

... A bit unhappy to find that the bonnet paintwork on the old P38 is a bit "rough". I had the car cleaned inside & out today and brought it home and the top on the bonnet is all gnarly and "pitted" feeling. :( There's "spots" on it too like the...
