PH-Lickable

[GinandGasoline]

Sold my Trophy yesterday And so i needed something as a short-term car until my new Meggy arrives which is gonna be a few months away yet.

So rather than be sensible and buy a cheap diesel, i opted for something to deliver some fun and stumbled across this very tidy PH-Quick. Totally original right down to the original supplied number plates and dealer sticker, together with loads of paperwork and history including the original shipping documentation too.

We bought it already looking pretty well looked after (40k on the clock and 3 previous lady owners, the last one of which was a smoker), although the interior was looking a bit shabby.

So after a full valet, wash, claybar, polish and wax, here are the results :

Interior before and after :

Exterior :

Very nice looking car.

What did you do to the grab handles to make them look so good?

 

[Bubbles]

The power of Cif on a wet cloth i think the amount of dirt on them had protected them from any wear.. theyve come up so well

Smokers cars = YUK!! So glad its all nice and clean now, im so proud of it hehe

Herts... whereabouts? I work in Herts, can't say i've seen many other Ph1's about, let alone any in this colour

Very nice - you did not waste any time finding one.

 

[GinandGasoline]

Very nice - you did not waste any time finding one.

it's been driving round town with for sale signs in for ages, and then disappeared off the radar. then i found it more by chance than anything the other day and having viewed it realised it was the one to go for. being less than a mile from where i live it was all quite easy to view and then buy it

i've bought a fair few cars over the years but this is by far the closest and easiest one i've bought

 

[Beef-Mc]

Looks in very good nick, especially after that clean

Good find

 

[Nafoff]
