brush on waxoil 5er a tin... ull need like 6 tins though if your doign inside and out, which is what i reccomend, cause if you ever get a leak for example in the windscreen seal, water can sit in the carpet/under the carpet and rust it from the inside out!
good fun though, wait till summer and do it urself

They had the car for a week whilst I was on holiday but I had a couple of bits and bobs done, Top blokes up there, family business, skills handed down from father to sons picked me up from the station on my return to collect the car, great service and great job well worth the trip up there, they are based in stoke on trent,

wax oiling would probably take around 3 days, removal of the inner wheel arches, a good steam cleaning under the car, allowed to dry properly and then apply the wax oil, give them a shout they have a spread in all RS owners club mags

I did my cossie 2 weeks ago. I bought the waxoil for about 25 quid and just used a paint brush to put it on. I used a ramp from work so it was easy 4 me.

Mine's in being done at the moment. I'm picking it up tomorrow and can't wait

5 litres in total have been used for a bargain price of £80. I'll post pictures when it's back!
