    do i go for the gt

    Sorry to hear youve had such trouble with your car. Thats a very long list of fail right there. My understanding of the rejection system is that it needs to be the same fault that occurs 3 times, as the manufacturer must be given 3 attemtps to fix it. Thats the dilemma I was in with my black...

    SX Kit removal

    The OP asked a question. You came on and said SX kit FTL. He didnt ask your opinion of the kit. Nor did I. If you cant help or have nothing to contribute to the thread apart from bullshit, then simply dont post.

    Taste. They have none.

    Citroen 2CV. One of the classics! :cool: What "special edition" is that then? Not the Wolfrace, is it?

    My 205 Gti

    Awesome car! One of my all time favourites behind the R5 GTT and Clio Williams!! Is she the 1.9 or the 1.6? Either way, the car looks remarkable after being sitting for so long! Is is just the pic or is the drivers seat a little on the tired side too?

    SX Kit removal

    Look, I dont particularly care if YOU like the kit or not. I happen to like it. Thats all that matters. Kindly PFO and stop insulting other members and their cars.

    Part number

    I dont know the part number but the splitter ONLY came on the Mk1 Ph1 Laguna from 1994 through 1998 until the facelift. The vented splitter was then replaced for a solid splitter similar to the Mk1 Megane. Hope this helps mate, but I do remember reading that you will probably have to bend over...

    Removing Swirl Marks

    It depends how deep the scratches are and how bad the swirls are. YES, you can have a go and YES most polishes will simply fill the swirls but they will come back in a couple of washes. To repair them, you really need the MP.

    197 brake fade??

    I would imagine they are just worn pads tbf. Im gonna have a look at the car over the weekend so will try and jack the car and take off a wheel and look. Id suggest DS2500 pads :approve:

    Removing Swirl Marks

    You should be able to get everything you need from any of the detailing supplies websites. And I agree with the MP comment. Kestrel DA polisher is your friend :)

    Removing Swirl Marks

    First use a light cutting compound such as one from the Menzerna range. Then use a finishing polish and sealant, Chemical Guys P40 finishing polish and Jetseal 109 to seal and then wax the car for the final shine. Dont do just one panel, do the whole car :D

    Emissions warning light - 197

    This happened with my last Clio 1.4. They replaced the coils, then the lambda, then couldnt find anything after a week, and then again they had it for 6 bloody weeks and STILL couldnt find the fault nor replicate it. I ended up having to buy the current Clio. Guess what happened. Same...
