Fast Ford Magazine Test The Rupes BigFoot LHR 15ES

+

Dan gives the big estate a good going over with clay, followed by a machine polish. For a relatively new car the paintwork on my car is, quite frankly, shocking. It was a lease car in its former life, and I get the impression the previous owner took great delight in washing it with gravel […]

Boasting 575bhp and a 0-62pmh time of 4.2 seconds, this outwardly ‘normal’ saloon style car would beat a 997 Carrera S off the line – impressive, considering it’s nearly 25% heavier! BMW describe it […]

Porsche 911 (996) Carrera 4 - Gloss Enhancement Treatment
+

The Polar Silver paintwork on this early 996 was in remarkably good condition considering it has covered 93,000 miles and gets used on a regular basis (not hidden in the garage!) It has all original paint too – the paint depth readings showed a fairly uniform thickness of paint over each panel, indicating the paintwork […]

The owner booked the Touareg into the […]

BMW E30 325i Cabriolet - Full Paintwork Correction Treatment
+

Manufactured between 1981 and 1994 the E30 is probably BMW’s most iconic model type and at the time, the 3-series 325i was the model to have.
