Viper finally arrived...

Post by Drigbyy2k »

Well finally picked up my viper yesterday, weather is pretty poor up here just now, snow snow and more snow...

It is a joy to drive and such a difference compared to my mini jcw, the room in it is great. Must admit I have found it to cope well in the snow up here, tyres seem fine in it. I also dont get the smear from the wiper, don't know if they have sorted this or it is because I have had autoglym lifeshine done on it. Think my alloys and black wing mirror caps blend the car together nicely with the black strip on the side...

Cheers,
Dom...

Hello Drigbyy2k, great looking Roc you have got there, congratulations! One question, my wk 3 built candy white is due to arrive within 1-2 weeks and I have been wondering for a while whether or not to have autoglym lifeshine done on it too...has it made your paintwork look more glossy? and most of all, are you satisfied with it so far?

thanks in advance

First time I have had autoglym ever, would advise to get it, the rain just turns to beads an rolls straight of the windows and bodywork, I drove it 120miles from my dealership home yesterday in the snow and the car is still gleaming...

Totally satisfied, the whole inside being black thing, well I love that and think it just makes it that bit more sporty/classy...

Forget the lifeshine and just buy some quality wax and polish.

Much better finish

Thanks Dom for the advice :), I do think what lifeshine covers + the warantee is well worth! Can't wait for my white steed to arrive, its going to be the longest 2 weeks wait for me...
