Hi (personalised first name)

It's been as busy as ever here at Meguiar's (yes, we do have to work as well as hang out at car shows!) and we've been working on a stack of stuff which I'd like to update you on.

• We've developed some pretty smart yet simple ways of washing your ride, and at the same time saving water and complying with water restrictions. <more>
• Our mates in the US have really pulled out all the stops on a brilliant multi media website. If you're into cars you'll love this. <more>
• Oh, and did I mention we hang out at car shows…. Check out the 2005 Meguiar's Superstars winners. <more>
• We have a brand new range of accessories. We're offering e-mag subscribers a really great deal, and we need your input. <more>
• If you want your boat to look as good as your car check out our latest marine stuff. <more>
• With Christmas round the corner we've put together some awesome gift packs. Check these out to avoid that ever expanding sock drawer! <more>
• We know some of you guys go crazy washing multiple cars and want the option of Meguiar's in bulk. So here it is, our brand spanking Detailer Range. <more>

Whilst we reckon we know stacks about car care, we are the first to admit we're not experts in e-newsletters. So to help make sure I'm sending you stuff that you actually want, it would be really good if you would take just 1 minute to give me some feedback. Please click here to answer just 6 short questions on improving this e-mag.

I hope you enjoy this e-mag and I look forward to your feedback.

Cheers

Andrew Spira

These days everyone knows that water has become a valuable and scarce resource and the responsibility for conserving our water supplies rests with all of us.
Most household water consumption is within the house followed by the garden, while washing your car, even with a hose and nozzle, uses less water than just one shower. However, in keeping with the "every drop counts" philosophy, we can show you how to wash your car using very little or no water and comply with water restrictions.

A really smart but simple solution is washing your car with a pressure cleaner being fed from a 15 litre bucket. This solution works an absolute treat (just ask any of my colleagues in Sydney) and has made washing the car so much easier. Click here for a step by step on how to set this up, or to buy a bucket already set up for a pressure cleaner connection. There’s also info on our other great water saver options.

This really is cool, and if you’re car crazy (like me) and you have a decent broadband connection, you’ll love it. On November 1 Car Crazy Central was launched. This new portal-like website takes automotive entertainment to the next level, offering a diversity of interactive capabilities including full streaming broadband automotive TV, on demand Videos, radio, and distinctive automotive e-cards.

Latest stuff includes great footage from SEMA in Las Vegas, the world's largest Automotive aftermarket show which took place from November 1 - 4. You’ve got to check this out! www.carcrazycentral.com

Now in it’s 5th year, Meguiar’s MotorEx was bigger and better than ever with record crowds and the best turn out of entrants. A key feature of the show is the Meguiar’s Superstars competition, the most highly contested “Enthusiast” award in Australia. It’s always a nail biting affair and the competition just gets tougher and tougher each year.

These guys are the best of the best, and are our 2005 Superstars Champions:
STREET MACHINE: Gary and Deby Myers, with their wild "Silver Bullet" mustang
HOT ROD: Mick Fabar with his immaculate Model A Pick-up “SWUOOP”
CUSTOM MOTORCYCLE: Wes Spark with “Phat”

Hot off the Press!!! Meguiar’s can now bring you a range of premium car care accessories. These products are ground-breaking, technologically advanced, and incredibly versatile. Simply put, they are the best tools available for the job.

Whilst we know these products will go down an absolute treat with any serious car enthusiast, we have only started this program with limited quantities and they are not available in any retail stores.

We would really like your input in order to evaluate them. So as an exclusive to e-mag subscribers, if you buy any accessories with a total value over $50.00 we will include a fantastic Multi Purpose Boot Organiser RRP $29.95…including delivery to your door... free of charge! Note that this special offer expires Dec 15th 2005.

We will include a short feedback form with every accessory purchase and your comments will go towards the ongoing development of this range.

Meguiar’s isn’t new to the boat business. In fact, few of you would know we’ve been working closely with fibreglass boat builders from the very beginning, and even invented the first Mould Release Wax for the production of high gloss parts directly from the mould.

So, for those of you that are looking to replicate that show car shine on your water based pride and joy, we now have an excellent range of Marine/RV products available either on-line or via a limited number of stockists. To view the new range, click here.

With Christmas just around the corner we have been busy putting together some blockbuster gift packs offering terrific value.

To save you from receiving yet another pair of socks I got our web design guru to design the page so you can even e-mail the pack you want to that special person that always nags you for present ideas! Talk about making it easy! Check out these great pressies here.

If you wash and detail a number of vehicles on a regular basis, this new Meguiar’s Detailer Range of professional detailing products is just for you. These trade products deliver supreme Meguiar’s quality at an extremely affordable price.

Check out the range here and contact us for a free brochure/wall chart and details of your nearest supplier.
