Thought Id wax the RS ready for winter seeing as though its my only car and doesnt live in a garage like the TVR did! Used that pink Smartwax and apart from being the best smelling wax ever, its well easy to use as well!! Even went a bit mad and treated the leather, rimwaxed (2nd best smelling wax ever! Haha) the wheels and hoovered it!!!

Anyway, took some pics as its only going to look like this for about 2 hours and Ive not took any with the pressed plates on!!!

I'd say the audi has the better engine (until you throw supercharger at the LS3 maybe )

It's a 6.0 v8 but it's got no turbo's and is well less 'advanced' than the audi engine, pretty much everything about the vxr8 will be worse compared with the rs.
