Just a brief introduction of myself to everyone.
Im 22, and I`m writing this from all the way North Wales, UK.
My current work status is sadly a crappy stock control job in our answer to Wall Mart, looking for a way out soon.
My hobbies are cars, computer and photography.
Current car is a Honda Integra Type R in black. Detailing wise Im currenlty using all Meguiars ( Gold Class Clear Coat Car Wax, Gold Class Car Wash Shampoo & Conditioner, Scratch X, Ultimate Wipe
, Lambswool Wash Mitt and regreatably a Meguiars cordless orbital buffer, thats not the best buy ever so it may seem ).
The car is my pride and joy, only mods so far are a decat and a 5Zigen cat back.
Hoping to take detailing on the car and in my life up a notch or two.
Picture of the car after the Meguiars works about a year ago with a then crappy camera

Nice ride & nice looking photo. :xyxthumbs
Even though you used a "crappy" camera as you said, it has that "calendar" look to it. Keep up the good work !

North Wales has the best road in the UK for driving, many a car magazine test cars here. Just last mont Evo car magazine came here to test the enzo, f40, f50 and 288 gto ( iirc ) in a ferrari special and there end of year car test. The road are round Bala, Conwy, Bethesda and Betws Y Coed and go on for miles with all kind of challanges, and the scencery is also second to none!
Oh and about 5miles away we have a race track aswell which is up there with the best in the UK, more of a cult favourite than a big silverstone kind of track.

The coastal drives are again everywere, with the likes of Caernarfon with it`s caslte, Anglesey is just one big island and your never more than a few miles off the coast. Then you can venture south west in North Wales and you get some amazing driving and also many harbours wich bring with them some $$$$ cars.
Speed limits are: 30mph in a built up area, 40 in semi built up, 50 in a single carrige way, and 70mph being the dual carriage way and motorway speed.
