think bmw has done extremely well given the competition. while I might not agreed the panamera should be put in the same category, it is still a decent sales number, will be interesting to see the number for the new cayenne.

nah, he's in his 50's I think. His son is 19 already. He told me he wanted to get a C63AMG and I told him to get an M3 instead, then 3 weeks later it's in the carpark. It's good to be rich!

from the 4 car A8 is not that good for the price and like you say it is the image Audi is a cheap image car because it is all over China and use it for taxi.
so far I have only seen 1 A8 in hole of HK, kowloon, N.T. they are much rare than Ferrari.
you may see more on your HK side.

i use Wilson, because they are always at the right place, but won't re-new it cos they are
sometimes good and mostly bad, depends on which location.
i haven't waxed the car yet, i think people like wilson and caz/challenger which don't have a water hose, will just scratch the car with damp cloths, right now the clear coat is shining without swirls, i know that once the wilson bozos get on it, there will be swirls etc,.
looking at whats around i think the kee=pre with overhead spray is the ideal way, or go to places like
Shell near Baguio villa, they have a car wash with high pressure hoses.
i have a hose but i've grown lazy.........

Well Keith is the pro on this subject, he should give the advice, we should follow

To be honest, if i had a water source at home, i would prefer to do regular washes at home and only go to a detailer for waxing it etc... but because i dont, then i am happy to pay a bit more for the convenience of going to get it all done for me.

Not sure why, but i trust keepre more than say Glaze or CAR or the other car valeters in those multi storey car parks. Bill, you use CAR dont you? Any comments??
