Hi all - haven't posted for a while as i've been busy with family and work stuff! My daughter is now 6months old and time is just flying by!
Thought i'd post some updated piccies. Almost had the car a year now and its never missed a beat!!
Covered 18500miles in 10months!! So i'll be on the 22k...

It pains me to look at these pics and at the car sat on the drive! It awesome! It looks amazing in the sun! Layers and Layers of polish and wax over the past 8-9wks have done me very proud indeed.

Just finished a quick clean...
Everytime i drive this car i'm reminded how special it is, how good it handles and how much fun it is, oh and how comfy those seats are! :D
It does everything well, fuel economy, fun factor and it covers ground through corners at a stupid pace, so much...
I'm looking at buying a bit more of a professional type camera to prefect my skills, i've mastered the art of my tiny snap shot canon jobbie, so its time to raise my game! lol
Not after anything too high spec, but a dedicated SLR would be nice.
Been looking at this one...
PE2's for the trophy. Wheres the cheapest place to get them?? Not bothered about fitting as i can get that sorted locally, but would prefer to save on the actual tyres, if thats possible?
Ta,
Dan
Heres my pics/vid from yesterday...boy what a journey! 8.5hrs to cover 40miles back from work, crawling through roads turning to rivers!! But the little trophy did well get me and it's self home in one piece! :cool:
Coming out of Stratford at 2:30pm
Still in the Stratford area at 5pm...
Just a few piccies from today, not the best but hey ho, sh1t camera! :D
Impressed once again with Richs' 182 - awesome!
Really liked these graphics, they really grew on me and suit the car. :cool:
Liked this kit for the 197 - nice and...

pmsl at the end!! lol
Some nasty ones in there...those clio cup racers are mental! lol :cool:
Posted a pic in detailing, but thought i'd wack the rest here...i know, i know...piccy wh0re! :D
Still need to do the inside and engine bay, but the back-breaking work is complete :D
Matt black with a bit of stardust silver in it (stood about 5mtrs away and let the wind do its stuff)...:cool:
Many coats of lacquer left to do and its finished (its still wet in the pics)
Middo - i need some 16v and 2.0l decals ;)
Finally a clear afternoon and i got a chance to use it...
Only a very quick detail today, the trophy had the works last week, so with just a strong wash with megs gold class i thought i'd just pop a layer of onyx on to sit above the nattys from last week. So easy on and off, when i buffed it...
Currently have BMC Carbon i/k on the trophy, and i used to have a hillpower jobbie on my 172.
Is there any difference in performance/gains between them?
I perfer the look of the hillpower i/k's so i'm thinking of changing. :cool:
Is there a skill/method for this or is it just scoop it up, rub together and slap it on (putting it bluntly!) lol
Is it easier to get a more even coverage doing by hand rather than with a applicator pad? :S
Dan :cool:
Just seen this advertised on Serious Performance...
http://www.seriousperformance.co.uk/Products,51,toView_340.html
Anyone used it yet?? What are the results like compared to the blue?
Cheers,
Dan :cool:
Thinking of changing the engine cover and i/k for something a little more colourful...what ya think?
Are the BMC i/k ment to be any good, it sounds quite meaty, but no where as dirty as the K&N i had in the 172. lol
