Well it is an easy target for them to hit, given the size of the Elgrand.I swear they use the top of my van for target practice

yeah they fly up and down our coast looking for targets... and the amount of Seagulls we have up here. I am sure it's probably the same bunch that target Tony's van!!!

yep, a big white target, they can't miss
Just washed mine for the first time since Summer 2023... paint shot on bonnet and roof, plus the jet wash has just blown a load of bad overspray off from what looks like some minor bodywork. Anyone good with a spraygun?

And added 5bhp
How have you found the Premium COntact 7s, compared to the Hankook all seasons you had? Might be a bit early to know of course.

Funny you say that.
New polish coming tomorrow to test.
Hopefully it will put a bit of a shine on the paintwork.

I have only drove 10 mile but they seem very comfortable.
More grippy but they are new and summer only opposed to all seasons.

Is it worn out yet?
I've tried Natty's black, as well as the whiote, blue and red over the years. They're okay, but gives a 'warmer' look, as opposed to a 'glassy' look which a FinishKare gives.
Must admit I threw Blackhole out as I found it did jack all (by hand anyway).

The Nattys wax is ok, doesn’t leave a white residue which is good but it doesn’t bead as well as Fusso which does leave a horrible residue.
I am also not sure the black hole is doing anything other than wearing my arm out, doesn’t seem to colour any minor scratches or even small chips with white fusso in.
