I gave the car a quicky tonight. Wash that is.

Poor thing has been left neglected for a month with me moving houses. The poor Aspire had to do most of the work pulling the horse float.

Tomorrow I will detail the interior, which includes removing the seats and boot carpet. Once it cools down I will give the paint some more paint protector.

I've been getting quotes and they are all about $320 for a 45k service.
