    NAV direction accuracy

    It worked when I changed the settings to include highways. The confusion happened when I excluded highways. I felt like taking the scenic route on a lazy Sunday. C7 did not agree and when it finally did, it added 100km+ to my scenic route. Lol.

    wash/clay/wax

    I had a chance to do a wash/clay/wax treatment. The improvement was quite noteworthy in person, but looking at the pictures now, the real shine is not captured in the pictures .. I will invest in a proper camera at some point :D Note on clay - be careful around the rear lower rockers where...
