    Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I can't remember who I heard say this, but it's much more fun to drive a slow car fast, than it is to drive a fast car slow.

    The most I did today was move the Qashqai out to get some room in the garage to do some weights, than wipe the tiny yellow "insect poo" off with some Nova Boost when I moved it back in. It's only done about 50kms in the last month, so I'm keeping it in the garage at night.

    Big Dave- it’s a saying I’ve heard before and it’s absolutely true! I’m sure all the millionaires that light up the rear tires on their super cars for the first time would agree, whether they put it in a wall or not haha.

    I know they’re not sold here, but I hear great things about that product line, Nova. Australian Company?

    Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    The Nova line comes from a company called Concours, and while I think they develop their own stuff, some of it comes from Japan and Europe. I first came across it when I went to a detailing supplier in Melbourne, an 8 hour drive from where I lived, I was also picking up some wheels I bought on ebay, and who doesn't love a road trip. I was talking to the guy about the Gyeon stuff I was using at the time, and he gave a bottle of their stuff for free. He told me if you like Gyeon, you'll love this. And I'm still buying their stuff, I love the results, and so easy to apply

    Ahh ok, I’ve heard of Concours didn’t realize they’re related. Gyeon makes great products so if this has your attention it must be very very good!

    Your wife must be an angel to take an 8 hour road trip with you for detail supplies haha

    Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I'm fine thanks for asking. I like my '06 however I had a 1990 before this one and believe it or not, I regret selling it. Although I think all the Miatas are fun cars, it was just a totally different/better driving experience. You may already be a member of the Miata.net forum however if you are not, you might want to check it out.

    Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I’m not a member there but I’ve lurked on and off there over the years. Miatas are great cars and I feel anybody and everybody(millennials(my gen) and younger!!)) should own one at some point or at least drive one and experience it. One of the truly great sports cars and readily attainable by all. Also, there’s no denying how fun they are and how much they “talk” to you.

    I currently have a ‘90 and before had a 2013 Club which was phenomenal, should’ve never sold it. Live and learn though, lived without one and learned I wanted one again haha.

    Ha ha, I'm single, that's why I can do long road trips for silly reasons. My only dependents are my dogs, and more recently my 79 year old mum, she's still very independent and mobile, but with coronavirus they've suggested everyone over 60 stay at home. Luckily she's heavily into Netflix.

    I am planning my next road trip after lift the restrictions, 2.5 hours south to my favourite burger joint, near where we used to live, it helps that there is some off road tracks nearby as well.

    Raining here this morning, not sure I will get any detailing done today.
