Will I find it in Halfrauds or will I need to find a decent detailing shop for it?

its been 15 degrees here, hows it so cold up there :eek:

The leather on my seats has got some marks in it on the side bolsters, it looks like some-one has caught it with something and kinda cut the top of the leather off, but not cut through :S is there anything I can do to make it nice and black again or is it f**ked?

Its still on going. I didn't have the luxury of time so I rushed into buying it :( Wont be doing that again..

1 of these days you'll make it Dave haha.

I did mate yeah, have a look at my thread in the dealers and specialists section to see how well that went..

Aslong as you dont work for A1 Ortos your welcome ;) 7 it is.

8J on ET0 on a car thats normally ET37, not gonna work lol. You'd need a brave arch roll and some stretch to even stand a chance ;)

7-8ish meet. stay until all are done with beer/soft drinks and/or food.

Seems we've got a few members around Bury/Radcliffe... I've just put up a thread for a meet at the paper mill in pilsworth.

Its that time again haha. The Paper Mill this Thursday evening? Is any-one up for it?

Would a decent plastic primer not do the job on it?

I have, I'm not a fan personally I was sketchy about 50mm overfenders on my 200 and they weren't anywhere near as wide as Berg Cup jobbies.

I like bar the wing and the roll bar.

without being rude, that looks rediculous. Too wide imo

It would look pretty tasty on a white car with some carbon I think. I'm unsure about yours tbh

This is true, but its a much cheaper option than retrims when the seats are out of warranty. As I said, my recaro's survived me for a year and I'm 6ft3 clumsy and I'm pretty f**king far from skinny... Maybe I had a decent pair of Recaro's?

Cliosport to the rescue (Although my Recaro's didn't show wear after 12 months and 10k miles...) http://www.cliosport.net/shop/product_info.php?cPath=22&products_id=125

This wouldn't be on your 172 CUP would it?

I decided that the lambs wool mitt was useless anyway so I've bought a turtlewax ice microfibre mitt now. Much better and no dirt or grit caught in it..

Absolutely no need for it to run for ages. The Greddy one I have used to be preset to 20 seconds, however since the battery ran flat its on autotimer and its fecking annoying, so I normally sit in the car for 20 secs then switch it off. Japanese instruction manual ftl.

If it was a black 51 plate 172 it may have been me

Drill the hole for the bonnet release a bit?

When washing lambs wool mitts do you just chuck them in the washing machine?

My clio's not that tatty, and f*cked as it is it isn't scary/frightening to drive. One of the Coupes I test drove I literally took it about half a mile, went to go around a corner slowy and nearly drove it straight off the road. I turned round took it straight back!

I like them, both ;) I was looking for an astra coupe Bertone before I got my 172 but literally every single one I test drove was either f*cked or seriously tatty :(

Mines set at 20 seconds, although as Ben said its not really needed just stay off boost for the last half a mile or so and its all good.

Inflatable dingy and padles on the tyres?

Good enough for me, I'll clean up the thread. Any further discussion regarding the condition on collection can be done via PM. Thanks

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol Cheap, easy to fit and with pretty good looking tailpipes, I had my reasons ;)
