Introducing "Spirit of Herbie" from France

[spirit of herbie]

Thanks for your nice message yellojkt !

Here you will find a special focus of the detailing of my rims !
Photo report made last month
How to clean your rims :


Here this is my recipe and it works !!!
On the pictures below,please note that my car 26 months old and 50 000 miles ( 80 000 km)



Using Super Degreaser diluted at 1 :4 in a spray




Spray on your solution and use your brushes and wait 30 seconds before to rinse off very well







After, make a hand car wash using a mitt with NXT Car Wash , and rinse off .
Use your water magnet to wipe out !



Not very complicated, isn't it ?

And now, have a break, nothing is better than a glass of champaign after a great cruisin' around the belgian countryside !
Cheers !

We will pleased to meet you again Marcia and see your lovely smile and your nice mood !
PS : I have no news about Jeroen and Johnny !

anyway, we will be a party of 20 buglovers to visit Grand Duchy of Luxembourg countryside and will have a good fun with a special quizz !
Not very difficult but funny !
So now, I have to translate this quizz in english cause it could be too hard and unfair if I give it in french to you !
But don't worry, I do my best for you Marcia !
Many kisses and greetings from France and luxembourg as well !
( When I live between these two countries, I don't know if I am in France or in Grand Duchy, anyway I'm european citizenship !!!)

See you very soon Marcia !

And on this picture , my bug is almost 55 000 miles displayed on the speedometer !
Not too bad !
Instead to eat my rims, I prefer to eat a great slice of
" foie gras" on toast with a glass of Bordeaux vintage wine!
(Chateau Talbot, St Julien 1986 is not too bad !!!!)
Bon appétit ! ( enjoy your meal in french )

As a matter of fact, it's only 2 weeks!
And a quiz? how fun.
For a good translation you might find some Canadian orgers in the Canada corner who can speak both French and English.
It's just a thought

Yelojkt meant that the rims are so clean, you can use them as a plate and eat your dinner off of them

But, should I eat my "foie gras" using my rims as a plate ?
Oh, no !

good suggestion with canadian orgers to help me in english translation of this quizz !!!
Thanks Marcia
Have a nice day !
D-Day -14 now !
