Looks good Kieran, a tidy white soarer can look very sharp
Did you clean the leather seats? They look pretty good.
Im actually in the process of cleaning my velour rear ones myself in the house. I must say its sure noisy in the the cabin while driving with the rear seats taken out, I hear ALOT more. Good sound-deading in the seats I guess

Yes, did a complete detail inside and out. Pelle leather cleanser followed with a conditioning agent, did some spot-removal on carpet (I'm getting a proper shampooing done shortly). Armouralled the dash and centre console too. I just wish that the light was better and showed the beautiful cream colour of the leather, the flash has washed out the colours and the shots without the flash were far too dark.
I went a little cleaning crazy, I even brasso'd the keyholes and exhaust pipes...

Hmm not as crazy as me!
Every time I hop out of my soarer, or hop in it I brush the velour seats in a forwards and down direction of the material so its all flat and not messy looking
I also get a dust cloth and wipe the interior down every time I hop in it so theres hardly any dust on the console! I hate dust!
I also wash it well once every weak and give it a nice wax, exhaust tips polished with brasso, headlights cleaned with Scratch-x, wheels cleaned and all rubber seals silicone sprayed. Then a car cover every time its not being used to avoid birds and trees dropping horrible stuff on the cleaned paint!

Hmm, polished mine about 3 weeks ago, and it'll probably see another polish in another 3 months if its lucky! I wash every second week if the weather is OK - I often figure there is no point if its a week of rain.
I really do need to give the interior a damn good clean though, the carpets are getting pretty disgusting. I do keep my dash fairly dust free though.
