Just curious what my 172 will be worth
2003 03 plate
Black 172 sport
Just about tick over to 84k miles
Will be mot'd next month so near enough full mot
Fsh, belts done 2012.
Just had rear brakes, rear caliper
Newly refurbed 182 wheels with new tyres all around.
Going to get service before...
It's led spot lights. Twin tripod setup is 2x20w led cool white
Door pic with one light is a 50w cool led.
Window is diy sungun. All easily found on eBay
I did start to refine it. 2 panels are done. Front wing and drivers door. Used polish angel primer.
Finish is as you say good for cutting pad with cutting polish. This would be because the paint was rock hard.
Refining it will bring up the clairity a fair bit but I let winter have its way...
Glass was polished with carpro glass (rayon) pad ( in my case spot one)
With carpro ceriglass. With rotary
Small sections at a time. 1/4 of window took me 2 hits to get that result in 8 sections in that 1/4.
so when I first picked up my clio I knew it would need some major work.
I prep,d it over the weekend. Never bothered much about wheels has a had a set of fresh 182 wheels to go on.
Prep was carried out in usual manner.
Citrus pre wash
Rinsed off
Snow foamed
Door shuts, trims etc all hit with...
finally done the pics from detail. wont post the ones posted already

Thanks mate. Still to be refined to bring the gloss up more and proper protection but might leave that for sbit till winter is done and get it completed.
Wearing carpro reload which will see it through winter esp with the millage I cover. About 6 miles a day
