Washed and chamoised off, fed the front seats with Glyptone conditioner, vacuumed the carpets and admired my newly fitted second hand gear surround walnut console, such an improvement on the cracked and 'milky' lacquered predecessor. Jacked up and inspected the underside in readiness for a rust proofing session I have booked in the week after next. Checked all fluid levels and front offside tyre pressure , which looses about 2 1b a fortnight.

Parked it at the valet, went off shopping and then for dinner, and once done collected the car and marvelled at the shiny paint and stripy mats :thumb:

Talking of mats...

After I vacuumed the porcelain ones, I fitted some black rubber ones over the top...Rashman styleee...

The AMG mats are dark velour effect and so they hide the direct fairly well, but the silver grey ribbed mats in the W163 have rubber mats on top too :D

After almost 11 years the ribbed mats and rubber mats look box fresh!
 
Moved them both off the drive to avoid a cement mixer covering them in small beige spots
 
Bought another one!!! :bannana::D

On the way out now.
 
Washed it (again - twice in two days :devil:) after the cars round here were covered in a sandy coloured coating overnight

Sand, I'm guessing.
 
Went out for one of my last drives in it as it'll be getting put on SORN tomorrow until I sell it as I have another car coming soon.

After 135,000 miles in the Merc, the new car has a lot to live up to
 
Nothing as its currently sitting in PCS waiting for a new rear strut. Bloody typical when its such a great weekend!!
 
Easier shown than said. In the last hour...
