  • Locusts!

    I spent a couple of hours yesterday cleaning our Touareg after the drive from the Naracoorte. The car is driving back there tomorrow and I don't want to have a hard time washing it again. So, a quick trip to Bannings today for 2 meters of shade cloth, the Treg received the Mothers FX wax, and the second coat of wax before the shade cloth was attached.

    Good job with the shade cloth - how did you fasten it on the sides?

        Just used the screws in the inner guard and plastic ties under the car.

            Very nice job!!

            I saw lots of this sort of thing when driving around northen Vic recently but none of them was as neatly executed as yours.

              I know, I choose the cheapest shade cloth (quite coarse one). The car is in Naracoorte now and run very well, she made Naracoorte/Adelaide - Adelaide/Naracoorte on one tank and still has 1/4 of the tank left.
