nail polish for the calipers, facial for the bonnet and while you're at it you might as well wax the seats, we all prefer it nice and smooth

aaaaww nowhere but p-wrx do we talk about cars, portable toilets and bring people together.

Do I see a spin off site in the near future tuna, where people post pic's of their car and talk about long drives on the beach?
