Re: Vince's xm - Planned return to the road
I've just had an amazing idea which im going to explore this week.....
I have a bunch of customers who own and run MOT centres.....im going to try to arrange a trade off for one of them to get the work done on the xm and MOT it for me and in return ill detail one or two of their cars for them
I know ill find one of them who will be up for that
The added bonus will be more exposure on the Pallas AR front for me
Right,that's the plan

As you know though, I do not have a garage or under cover. I DO have an XM Car cover though which can go on her once done!
Ive done all the holes IIRC on her now, its a case of fettle and finish.

Hi Vince,
I have an idea for your fundraising...Caravan detailing. Apparently caravan cleaners/detailers get booked up well in advance.
