Hello all,

Forgive me for not writing in your language. I can read German without a problem, but can't write it.
This forum has been very helpful until now, so I owe you an introduction  :cheese

I have a 2006 Chevrolet Epica 2.5 automatic running on LPG (Vialle), second owner. The car runs great, no problems at all.
Recently, I replaced the joints of the front doors and the logo's on the front and back (you probably know why). Other than that, the car is very well maintained. I'm very happy with the car!  :thumbsup

Small update. Don't know if you're into car detailing, but I've got the Epica for a year now and decided to make it a bit cleaner  :thumbsup
Used products such as Monello, Autoglym, Poorboys World, etc.

Did the following things:

- Washed car, used all purpose cleaner to get rid of all dusted and hard to reach spots such as the trunk
- Used a polishing (eccentric) machine with different pads and polishers for the exterior
- Trim restorer for the plastic parts (exterior and the engine bay)
- Polished and waxed the headlights
- Restored the rims completely
- Trim dresser for the tires
- Repainted the black strip on the grille (crappy painted) and the wiper arms
- Removed the chrome strip on the trunk and removed the rust
- Restored the brake calliper and rusty parts of the disc

Results:
