Hard boiled eggs - mayo or salad cream??

Thanks for the suggestions Gents, i'll try eBay and Classic car and see what happens!

As the better weather starts to show itself, it's time to advertise my 1993 300SL (money required elsewhere). I tried Autotrader late last year (probably the wrong time to advertise a convertible?) with very little interest other than the occasional chancer offering half the advertised price...

Stuck in hair!

Ooop's - this was about cars?? ;-)

I'm guessing you have checked the roof and that is ok? So have you tried lifting the carpet and pressure washing the inner arch - see if water is coming through there somehow? Other than that - could the windscreen need refitting with new seals?

Put her away for the winter, back out again in the spring.

Elvis, Freddie Mercury and Al Capone.

Have you tried Breakeryard.com? I've used them previously looking for door's for a Ford Galaxy and found them really helpful (and cheap!).

That's good value, and Ring is a good brand name - I have a Ring battery charger/power pack and it keeps cars and mowers running with no trouble.

I'm too particular to let anyone else wash my cars - hands off!!! Radio on, maybe a can of beer and a DO NOT DISTURB sign on the garage door. Bliss. :-)

I've had a Michelin one (round type) for 3 years now, nothing to report other than it keeps pumping and the gauge seems to be fairly accurate - checking against a hand held manual gauge. Bought from Halfords.

Too much for me certainly - I could get a re-spray for less than the wrap quote I got!

Looked into getting my wife's Freelander wrapped last year - got a quote from a company who had an "advert" car parked at Brands Hatch. At just over £1400, which didn't include door shuts etc - I thought it was too expensive.
