How come it is still so damn hot outside??? Not good for BBQ, it's suppose to be winter time already according to the chinese calendar...

Guys

Do u use any of the following car detailers?
1) Challenger
2) Cars
3) Wilson
I hv tried both 1 and 2, I find 2 better. Any experience?
I think all three did a horrible job... Well, maybe it's just my bias that I don't like ppl use bucket of dirty water to wash my car

For anyone that's live in kowloon side, I take my car to a shop in Sun Po Kong for car wash. They use pressure jet and hand+airgun dry. Thus, they have pressure jet for undercar as well... I buy "coupons" from them, cost me around $59 each
Hey gf366, where is that place you are talking about? I think I wanted a wash in between those detailing session as sometimes the car gets real dirty and too much brake dust, plus those ah sum doesn't do the best job on the body and wheels they only clean the windows well.

Any other place where you can get a good wash for a good price.

Um... I don't know how to describe the location... If by anychace during the saturday afternoon, you would be interested in trying such a car wash, just give me a call, if I am not busy, I would be happy to give you one of the coupon to have it a try at that place in Sun Po Kong... Please send me an email at michaelkwong@netvigator.com , and I will email you my phone number, and hopefully some more information on that car wash shop

Thanks gf366 you are great!

Hey mic325 you should read the post about the Xenon retrofit in the DIY section before thinking about getting the Xenon retrofit. There seems to be some errors about the coding of the lights which cause the markers and reverse light to fail.

We are planning a BBQ and I've suggested a place at Sai Kung where they have free parking and golf but it depends on the number of people.

Actually, I wouldn't mind trying the Z4, I wonder how it drives. I like the design.
When my E46 318i got stacked, I asked BMWHK for loaner, they told me they don't do loaners, they offer rental only, it cost approx HK$700 per day for a mini and $800 for a E46
Rental is too expensive here :thumbsdown:

It do cost more than by taking a Taxi. Car is not a must in HK as well.

Yeah is not a must to go out with the car, but is a must to have one at home (if you can afford one)
