    My financial advisor has a business lease for an S 350, £600/month over 3 yrs with £3k down (inc VAT). He reckons he's has got a £75K car for £25K and that his S Class will be worth a lot less than £50K in 3yrs. In 3yrs he just returns to MB and is free to choose his next car.

    I was planning to wax with my meguiars nxt, but I also have a bottle of the stage 1 and stage 2 "pre" polish (forgive the non technical term). Should I bother with the 3 coat system or just chuck the meguiars nxt on? Please don't suggest clay bar, did that once, never again- will pay someone!
