Looks great Ant!

The mind boggles at that comment. It's almost as bad as the response I've had about premature Recaro bolster and steering wheel wear from SJ Cook / Renault UK. Oh wait...

Did you work that out from the heritage site mate?

Very nice work Scrooge , what car?

I have to say, I thought that might be the outcome when I got my sample. It seems quite similar to Revive in what it does?

That will have been me, I seem to spend my life there lol. What were you in? A blue Megane with cooksport stickers in the window? Go for it mate, if you want me to take you out in mine give me a shout! :)

This is looking great Lawrence, a real credit to you!

200T doesn't seem to exist..?

Not unless we get another group buy going! Will probably try to sort one for January if people are up for that.

Valeting = Compromise! Hate that it's such a popular keyword, really don't want to resort to using it on my website..

Valeting ftl.

An hour to take an exhaust off and fit another, so 2 hours possibly?

Thanks mate! Cheers, I do try! :)

Just under a month on the car! Losing faith in C2v3. :( I still don't think it adds anything to the finish and durability like that is poor. I've noticed it's fallen off my mum's X3 that I did in August, but that wasn't fully decon'd beforehand. Might be going the same way Dave! I think...

Sorry, should have said, C2 on the left as you look! Was quite shocked!

As well as the Spirit test, I've been running C2v3 and Zymol Vintage on the bonnet of the 200. This is after a wash, both applied a month ago after full decon after IPA wipedown. http://www.flickr.com/photos/78835654@N04/10782998423/

Multi-quote in true Chip fashion: True, but the AF packaging isn't within the same frame imo. I don't really know the difference between all the AF waxes except price. Thanks mate. :) Cheers Jamie! You going to be testing the same combo? Interested to hear your thoughts. Thanks! The...

Ah I see, thanks for letting me know Dave! Thanks Martin! You could well have been! yours isn't any different to mine in reality! Zymol Carbon, Swissvax Onyx, Mitchell & King and Gally mentioned Definitive Wax.

Thanks mate, I read yours earlier and noticed you found the same issues with the transparency when applying. I don't think a better pot would demand higher prices, but if it did, it would be minimal difference depending on what they do.

Thanks Kev, I love how dark RB looks on overcast days compared to almost baby blue in sunlight! In reality I think it's the main thing letting down the range. I've used Illusion and Spirit and both are brilliant waxes, but you need more than function for near enough triple figure prices.

That looks awesome in the penultimate photo!

So after receiving the two samples in the post, I went about the usual prep with a wash and dry, as the car had been fully decon'd a month ago. Tough prep was then worked via DA to test correction and filling properties, followed by application of Spirit. Tough Prep Looking firstly at the...

Love it!

Lol same, I gambled and opened before previewing the text! #yolo etc. The cars look lovely btw, plates are offensive and probably illegal on both though.

Ah I see, you are so much more savvy at buying cars than me lol. I thought you meant that if you wanted something newer to get a Mini. A Mini of any age is more expensive than the alternative Clio.

Are you sure about that?! I can imagine mate!

Haha, is the exhaust much louder without the seats? This thread makes me want to clean mine now lol

I nearly went with an MCS but the prices aren't comparable to 197/200's imo. My fully-spec'd 200 with 12k and 2 years old was just over £11k from Steve at R-Sport. Dick Lovett had a non-JCW R53 with saggy leather and 60k for £12k.

Looks great Ry, projectors would set that off perfectly! Like the boot floor, but 2 seats isn't the most practical lol
