No, not because the car was a state but because I decided to clean, polish and wax my E320 on what seems to be the hottest day of the year!! :doh:

Started at 9am with a quick once over with the Valet Pro Citrus Pre-wash and a thorough rinse down with the hose. Washed with Dodo Juice Basics of Bling shampoo.

I stuck with the Dodo Juice theme as I have a cupboard full of the stuff, plus in the heat their products don't bake as tough in the heat as other products. Only a basically bit of detailing really..

Once over with Dodo Juice Lime Prime

Then a coat of Dodo Juice Supernatural wax to see it through the summer

Not a bad results from a simple clean up.

Comes up nice for and old girl! :D
 
Looking good!!

How are the rear arches? Have they been rust repaired yet :D
Mine have been done now so hopefully ok for a few years
 
Looks great. Was hoping to do mine this weekend but gave it a miss due to the heat!

The arches aren't too bad but will need some TLC at some point in the next 12 months. I'll probably aim to get them done before winter this year.

Fortunately my local bodyshop has done work on these cars before (owner has an SL) so they're good with Mercs. :thumb:

A wise move I would say mate. I started at 9am and finished at 12 but part way through really wished I'd just gone for a wash and dry!
