Real Friends

Nobody can deny the importance of friendship in life. We all know the importance of friends. They will be there for you through thick and thin, share the laughter as well as carry you through the dark part of life. The question will always be how do we know who are the fair weather friends and who are the real friends to keep?



Everyone has different theories and my friend, J has this especially interesting one:

“A real friend is one who changes your tires when you punctured it on the road.”

I mean of course we have many other versions and this is probably my favorite.

No Question Asked.

Tyre Queen

Based on my friend’s theory, your new best friend should probably be Tyre Queen.

Who is tyre queen?

Many many pretty zeh zeh on the page. :)~
TyreQueen is an Online shopping portal that gives customer the convenience to save their time spent at the workshop. All you have to do is simply log on to their website, choose your preferred tyres, compare, purchase and choose your preferred workshop location and head down on the selected day and time. TyreQueen also offers an installment plan for up to 36 months for any tyres purchases of above $500! #SongBo

TyreQueen offers more than 20 brands of tyres for your selection and has an extensive selection of rims. Tyre brands include Michelin, Pirelli, Continental, Goodyear, Dunlop, Apollo and Vredestein etc.

TyreQueen is also the sole distributor for Apollo and Vredestein Tyres in Singapore!

Apollo

Apollo Tyres was established in 1972 with a turnover of $2.34 billion as of FY 12-13. Apollo established an R&D facility in the Netherlands, worked on the new tread patterns and rubber compounds to improve the performance and longevity of the tyre.

Apollo Tyres Ltd is in the business of manufacture and sale of tyres since its inception in 1972. Over the years, the company has grown manifold, establishing its footprint across the globe.

Apollo Tyres launched three new passenger vehicle tyres recently.
These 4th generation (4G) tyres from Apollo’s stable - Aspire 4G, Alnac 4G and Amazer 4G - are the most advanced range of high technology passenger vehicle tyres across segments.

The European designed and engineered Apollo Range of 4G tyres has a minimalistic design to provide good handling in wet and dry weather conditions, also improved in the traction and provide a quieter drive to drivers.

It comes with 5 years warranty too! 
Vredestein

With a heritage older than 100 years, brand Vredestein's unique story is best captured through its tagline "Designed To Protect You", which is also its brand promise. A winning combination of Dutch dedication and Italian elegance, Vredestein is best known for its premium high performance passenger vehicle tyres, especially in the winter tyre segment.

Moreover, it offers a wide array of equally exclusive and performance driven tyres for the agriculture, industrial and bicycle categories. Manufactured out of a state-of-the-art facility in Enschede, in The Netherlands, its products are sold largely in the aftermarket. Vredestein tyres can be found adorning a whole range of luxury vehicles across the European Union, the United States, the Middle East and China.

Giugiaro Design is responsible for the design of the tread and the sidewall of the Ultra High Performance tyres of Vredestein. But of course the engineers of Vredestein have the final say, as a tyre is a product that is essentially for safety, therefore safety and design have to go hand in hand for the Vredestein Tyres. The tyre tests that were done internationally have proved that the tyres not only is stylish but also demonstrats outstanding performance, on top of that, it has won awards time after time.



Freebie System

To be honest, these tyres looks pretty much like almost every other tyres for a noob driver to me. They are round with a hole like donuts, they push the car forward and I would probably only feel the difference during rainy day etc and I believe that it is almost the same for most end users like me. I am sure if there is a survey result somewhere out there,  it will probably shows that most of the end users select their tyres based on what their friends recommend or simply because of convenience. Basically agreeing to anything the mechanic offers and tell you is the best value which could very much because that are the only 2 to 3 brands they carries.

Things are different now, besides the fact that Tyre Queen has more than 20 brands for your selection, they also have a freebie system! With a system rewarding shoppers, I guess the choice is pretty easy, simply buy at Tyre Queen!

I seriously like how they are using Xiaxue the Blogger Queen as their face. Tyre Queen, Blogger Queen. Geddit?

Fabulous Shine Car Grooming at Punggol, Singapore.

Driving in Singapore is not exactly the easiest thing to do considering the ever-raising cost of ERP, petrol prices and more importantly COE cost. So it is very important to take care of our car by prolonging its working life. Just like how our gahment believes that we should retire later, same goes for our cars.


My car comes with a horse but it’s no Ferrari.

To make sure it can work as long as possible, we not only have to take care of its internal but external as well! Now, this is like how woman spend all the money on Botox, fillers and makeup. Truth is they spent money to look good and as men we feel proud to go holding them too right? Same thing applies for driving a nice shiny ride! And of course, nobody wants to bring a dirty and smelly girl car out!

Eh damn stress lah! 
Guess what? Maintaining a car is never easy especially if one buys a white car! Who the hell buys white cars anyway!! * looks around *  MEHHHHHH. With busy schedule, house work and work, there’s no way we will be able to do cleaning and grooming ourselves! And even if we have time, I doubt I can ever do it properly.  

Lucky for us for staying at Punggol we have a very good car grooming service provider just right at Marina Country Club, 600 Ponggol Seventeenth Ave. It’s just 5mins drive away.


Fabulous shine provides Professional car grooming services such as Car Spa, Paint Restoration Quick Sealant, Nano Paint Protection etc.

This is my “Xiao Bai” (Typical car name right? Xiao Bai, Xiao Hong, Xiao Hei. Like WTH.) at the workshop in the morning. You will notice it’s dull looking front.



Some obvious and stubborn dirt on the side door, side mirror and back.


I went to some car wash back then but these stains are very stubborn and they could not get it removed.

 I met Steven at the car wash and he is a very meticulous person. Not only did he clean the car but he also explains to me what is going to happen before he started working on it.

Paint Restoration Quick Sealant

So “Xiao Bai” was in for the paint restoration quick sealant service! It restores gloss on dull paintwork surfaces. Light scratches, swirls, stains and scuffs are able to vanish leaving paintwork shining and new. Suitable for all types of paintwork and colors of paint.

Recommended to apply on weathered paint, dull and lackluster paintwork to achieve a quick and shining paintwork.

The guys first wash the car with water to wash away the dirt and sand which is a very important part of car wash and also why one should never ever sign up your car for those “was at your car park”. Can you imagine them using that same cloth and same bucket of water from cars to cars without first washing it with water first? Scratches! And that is what is going to happen when the sand are not removed 1st!

 Within the package, they will also shampoo, clay wash, glow wax, rim wash, tyre shine, glass clean, interior vacuum as well as anti-bacterial spray! So many services within a simple package, worth it or what!

Within the above services, clay wash has to be one of those that really impress me! The clay wash makes my car feel so smooth like baby skin again. Haha.





you are not required to help but im just having some fun! Haha.



And this is the magical sealant at work!


Bye bye stubborn stains!


And within 40-60mins time, you car will be sparkling clean!!


The wife is happy!

And the final step rim shine!



And an interesting conversation came upon at this point

Wife: Why need to shine the rims? Got what function?

Steven: Like why woman put makeup?

Everyone: HAHAHAHA.

It’s good to see the rims all shiny and polished right!

Overall I am very satisfied with the service! I can’t remember when we saw our car all sparkling and shiny!


Available Car Grooming Package

*The way Fabulous Shine does the car wash is totally different from petrol kiosk. In petrol kiosks, mostly detergent shampoos are being used to wash the cars, in Fabulous Shine, the specialists only uses phosphate free shampoo, which reduces the damage to the car paintwork & the unique cleaning method also reduces scratches on the car. The combination of superior car washing shampoo & unique cleaning method render a more superior car wash than any of the petrol kiosks.
