I have finally got around to cleaning the car, i do not like cleaning the car when it is windy unless I really need to.

You need an applicator for your Karcher and a Gallon of Snow Foam and you are good to go.Paul Mabley wrote:Mine needs a clean.

Dilute the foam in the applicator and spray onto a dry car. Leave for a few minutes then rinse off with the jet wash not on full power. This process helps reduce swirls on the paint. You can still give it a quick wash with a wash mit, to be doubly sure the car is spotless.
Snow foamed, washed, dried, tidied up with car back in its bay took 40 minutes.

Wayne really
the last one from me, the Fluela Pass.

Hope you have enjoyed them all and hope to see you at an event soon. Maybe Classic Le Mans

Previous - 997 GTS with aerokit, aqua/black, PDK - Fantastic car would recommend.
997 C2S with aerokit, basalt/black, manual - Good car with great feel. More authentic than the GTS (PDK) but less capable.

A bit late, but some videos of the Stelvio Pass through an Iphone for you to enjoy:

My rides: 02 Boxster S - perfect in many ways although mine has been likened to Trigger's Broom; 1988 911 3.2 Sport - so much feel and character, a challenge to drive well, a flawed diamond in many ways, but every journey is an occasion

Re: Porsche Passes and Palace's European Trip September 2013
Thanks for those Al, I'll take a look over the next few days.
Never too late, nice to have a reminder of it all, seems like a long time ago already!
All those places are covered in snow now.
