I’ve used Gtechniq C5 and Gyeon Rim before. Both very good. The Gyeon stuff was meant to be rated to a higher temperature so I had the stuff in track wheels. I used the C5 stuff off a set of winter wheels this year and held up really well in the crap weather.

I think I used at least three cans of colour and two lacquer.

I rattle can’d the bumper on my Ph1. Does it look better than it did - yes. Could it be better without a proper respray - no. Do I regret doing it - no. I only did it as the whole bumper was like flat and faded and no amount of polish was going to get it back. Did a few coats of plastic...

I've used the stuff in the past, very happy with the results. As Clio_fool has shown and said it is a lot better than leaving it untreated. I also went over it with a DA polisher and that helped. Another trick I have used is just get some paint mixed up as an aerosol and apply in the same way...

Join the club. I’ll be in the big red barge and it might have more power out the factory than a 182 I have a feeling it will be the slowest thing out there!

Got a morning track session booked. Will be bringing the E34 for this. Also next year target of getting the Clio fixed

I remember having to do this back in 2020 when it all kicked off for all our code base and repositories. Couldn’t have slave, master, black lists, white lists. Still have some of the words kicking about which is apparently ok now. And in a previous job we were the Image Analysis team so...

Ran out of wheel cleaner. Found some Autoglym Clean Wheels in the shed. Actually not that bad! Sprayed on, waited, jet washed off and all the dirt had collected nicely to be washed off. Granted the wheels have been coated in C5 and it was only light dirt but I was impressed for something found...

Baby seat will be in the car. I’m using this day as an excuse to get away from family life. This reminds me, I still need to buy said baby seat.

I’m seriously considering taking the E34 out in the morning session. It’s probably the only suitable working car I’ll have to take to a track day come July.

@dann2707 ^^ this! Girlfriend has the proper car and I just need something as a little run around kind of thing. Plus I have issues and this Ph1 is perfect. I’m actually going to use my E34 as the family car until I save up a bit for something proper to get. But any excuse to have another...

I like this a lot, Ph1’s are such a pretty little car when they look like this. I need a family car…these have iso fix in the back…and they are simple mechanically and easy to fix…… must resist the temptation. Tbh more appropriate family car than the Z3 I’m currently driving. When I see good...

Not going to lie, did laugh a lot at that

I’ve got an iPhone 14 Pro so has the LiDAR on to help with focusing. Which is great. But when you try to take a photo through a window it won’t focus, assume it’s the LiDAR giving the wrong focal point. There was a massive stag in the garden earlier and I couldn’t get a photo of it Tried...
