hey mario, riekert is one of the youngsters on the forum. dont go giving him kak about being younger than 20 and owning an sx.
ok?
next time i'm in cape town with my sx, i would dig to join a cruise, specially one that involves the track at killarney. apparently they drift somewhere there too. would be awesome. is chapmans peak drive still open??
there's a few other guys from cape town that might be interested. tanaka comes to mind. also alfy, turbophile and turbophonic too. but most of these guys aren't regulars on the forum.

we know!!!
it'd be great to own an sx in CT i reckon. coastal air pressures so no loss of power, and mountainous terrain to play on.
then there's the track. up here in joburg they seem to be closing down faster than opening up!!!

gary's almost over the hill!!!
and as long as your care for the car, you can curb the rust for quite a while!!! but it can be an issue, i know, i lived in durban/richards bay for 12 years! and cape town for 2 years.

Dude i must be a freak but i wash my car every saturday, my ritual goes something like this: wash the car, take the mags off(wash them and polish the tyres), take the seats out and vacuum and clean the engine... and I try to polish the car at least once a month.
O ja and i dry everywhere I can get in... So ja i try to keep the SX clean and rust free!

I wash my car every Tuesday and Friday using Meguiars Gold Class Shampoo. I wax it every second week using Meguiars Gold Class Liquid Wax. If you enjoy washing your car, try Meguiars products it is real good stuff. I posted a topic here with a few pictures of my SX after the waxing.

Chapmans is open, you pay a fee to go threw. but it aint much. I will check if I can organise sumthing with my contact at killarney for end of Jan.
My daddy did motor racing for 24 years so he is well connected too.
will keep all updated!
Sounds like its gonna be a youngsters cruise cause Im 23 years old!
