Detailed the white Jetta

[atikovi]

This 2005 Jetta has been sitting since I bought it in 2012 for a transmission problem, and I've only just started driving it last month. Finished detailing the exterior. Restored the headlights with 500 grit paper dry, followed by 1,000 and 3,000 grit Trizact pads wet. Protected with 3M headlight coating. For the paint I prepped with Meguiar's Iron Decon followed by Meguiar's clay. Then polished with Meguiar's 110 compound with a DA polisher and a medium foam pad. Topped with Turtle Wax Graphene spray wax. Photo album at: https://app.photobucket.com/u/atikovi/a/d4ecfc4a-5bba-474d-800e-885f877889eb

You've had this car for 9 years?? All things considered will it make a profit?

Sure it will - he keeps putting cash in the trunk. Depreciating asset + regular cash injections = profit!

Looks great for a 2005!

I'll be happy to break even.

Unless, if he keeps the car for the next 50 years, then it becomes a vintage car. $$$$ value appreciation added.

Nice looking jetta. The inside of the fuel filler door is one of my many pet peeves
