my sunspot zs

[mrmick]

Well just got back from my 280 mile round trip to pick up a sunspot zs . Drives spot on also came with a full years mot needs one hell of a good clean and polishing all together very happy with it will take some pics tomorrow

[petet16]

Nice one

[Squeaks]

I want a sunspot Mk2 :( lol

[peterzs]

Sounds a good one, hurry up with the pics!!!

[talkingcars]

That's not the one from Durham is it?

I was trying to get details out of the seller of that one but he took 4 days to produce pictures and when I chased him 2 days later for service details I asked for with in a couple of hours of posting he told me it had been sold. And I was willing to pay his asking price.

That made it 4 cars in a week!

That's pushing 10 that I've missed out on since the begining of December.

I give up!

[talkingcars]

p.s. well done.

[mrmick]

Yes tc it is that one i was waiting for the pics too said he could not take as car was covered in snow .

[talkingcars]

So that means you have 2 now, keeping both?

[mrmick]

Defo keeping my original one did buy other one for daughter but she now on about keeping here zr as i have spent fortunes on it see how next couple weeks go if i do decide to sell it it will be in immaculate condition if i do .

[talkingcars]

Can I have first dibs?

[mrmick]

I will always offer it on this forum first and yes i will pm you first :punk:

[talkingcars]

Cool, cheers, appriciated.

[mrmick]

Well spent all day cleaning and detailing this car all day just the wheels to flat and top coat . Few pics from start to end .

[Smokey]

Just....wow

[petet16]

Good work, that looks 100% better

[WalkerDnB]

I never understand why people dont give there cars a good clean before selling (or pay someone to do it)

It looks so much better now Like its been well looked after.

[peterzs]

people dont deserve nice cars if they let them get into that condition.

Makes you wonder if it ever got serviced.

Great job.

[mrmick]

Problem is alot of people these days have it in there mind . if it starts that will do . They dont like spending money

[talkingcars]

Have you done the wheels white?

[mrmick]

No thats just undercoat will be done silver again tomorrow

[peterzs]

I'll drop my wheels round later!!!!!

[mrmick]

No prob pete can sort a spare set if ever you want them doin

[peterzs]

Cheers, but I'd only bash them up again!!!!!

[Dan1971]

Great effort .....

[Ippon]

No thats just undercoat will be done silver again tomorrow

Cheers
Paul

[Ippon]

ah just found this (http://forums.mg-rover.org/showthread.php?t=427081) .... it this the norm?
Looks like it takes 5 days per wheel? I'm just looking for them to look OK for a possible PX (against a newer SMax)

[mrmick]

Its bout right all depends on if u want them too look brand new or just tidy to suit the age of the car i can do a full in a day no prob

[WalkerDnB]

If you want then to last you need to powder coat them
Other wise they will chip to easy

[mrmick]

Poweder coating is good yes but if not sealed properly they will pit and look rubbish . I know of people who have had powder coating done and 18 months later they are having them repainted

[andys1981]

great effort mate,car is looking ace!!

[WalkerDnB]

Poweder coating is good yes but if not sealed properly they will pit and look rubbish . I know of people who have had powder coating done and 18 months later they are having them repainted

not cheap though
