Hi Guys,
It was quite warm yesterday (saturday) about 7 degs. so i went to work cleaning the Lancer for the first time in a couple weeks, it had only done about 200 miles.
I have been desperate to get some pics of the Auris SR alas its either been dirty or too dark! Today it was a 2 above freezing and Auris had done near a 1K in the last 2 weeks. There was frost on the houses when i started this afternoon and finished at dew point.
The Auris is the European replacement for the Corolla and features a automated clutch gearbox with paddle shifters and gear lever and automatic modes, engines currently top out at a 180HP 2.2 Turbo Diesel. Double wishbone suspension all tuned by the Motorsports division at Toyota. Japan has also has this with a 3.3 V6 (known as Blade Master), not avalible in the UK as yet.
The Auris has Klasses AIO topped with 2x
Wolfgang Sealant 3.0 applied in the first week of October, the wheels have got EGP on. The paint on this car is called Venitian Silver which is a blue-silver depending on what way the light catches the car. Windows are all factory tinted just incase you thought i had pimped it!
The Lancer has RMG topped with 2x
Wolfgang Sealant 3.0 also applied in the first week of October.
I have included pictures of the glass sealant from Carplan (Nanomeric) Also on about its 10th week!
Kinda crappy pics due to weather but you get the idea!

Got to love that new Wolfgang Sealant, it looks good and is seeming to last very well! Lancer tyres have my favorite Sonus Tire and Trim, blackens the tyres so they look great even through all poor weather and when its fresh it has a decent low gloss.
Oh YEAH! Dont ever buy these Toyota MotorSport wheels for the Auris, they are A PAIN IN THE ***! If you have these wheels or similar and want a major help getting them sorted then buy these:
Wolfgang Finger Pockets
I use one one to clean between the spokes with and i used another to apply EGP by spraying each side of the "foam pocket" with EGP and then sliding it around the spokes.
UQD is used to keep them as clean as possible between washes.
