I was motivated to give her a wash due to meeting up with tomorrow in Highlands NC. Keep in mind the car will be 18 years old on August 8th next week (I took delivery at the BMW Performance Center near Greer, SC on 8/8/08.). Oh and the grass needs cutting. Typically, when I wash my car, it usually rains the next day or very soon after - and now I see rain in the forecast... More often than not, the rain serves to wash the car. If you look carefully you'll see the carbon roof is in bad shape due to the clear coat failure. It's scheduled to be refurbished the last week of next month as a birthday present for her. Nothing wrong with a little bit of TLC to keep her looking her best. I suppose car years are not the same as people years regarding aging. Sort of like dog years. But she has been kept in good shape. Lots of things still to get done though, before the end of the year such as Valve Covers, Injectors, Spark Plugs, and fixing the sagging roof lining. A nip and tuck is all she needs.
