I guess my location should really be Carlisle/ Newcastle but since I'm home quite often and the car is there may aswell just stick with Cumbria.

Yeah Quay Point is the new flats that are just on the other side of the metro line. Think they've been up 3 years now so yeah still newish.

I washed the Nova last night and also polished it a couple of weeks ago but I remembered that I should seal the paint with some wax

So I cracked out the Megs Carnuba Wax for the 2nd time ever tonight and what a difference it makes!
