Love that mate
Question on the victoria wax.. I have two tubs of the stuff... One is concourse wax, one is cruising wax, whats the difference? And do you apply it by hand?
Also noticed you put the glaze wax on after this, what's the reason for that? I'm bit of a n00b on detailing
With all these folk the road is going to be too full to get any sort of spirited driving going what so ever :|
Imo... Can all people please remove theirselves form the list and I'll just go on my own.
I appreciate your assitance at this time.
Many Thanks

Think it's jsut natural mate, my 182 does it, if i'm really late for work and can't give it a few minutes to warm up then I drive it cold at low revs, when you take the foot of accelerator it slows down very quick and is quite jerky
Made a thread the other week about a rattling from my exhaust, turned out to be the heat shielf on one corner.
But now the rattling has come back and is through the rev range rather than just at a certain point, even at idle, I should add that i've got no carpet or seats so the slightest...
Gutted somebody else has got the serie rossa's on :( lol
All the plans sound very hardcore mate :P Like others have said it seems a bit backward to not go for a 172 cup as mileage won't be a massive issue considering you're rebuilding it all anyway but your car so good luck with it, can't wait...
Agreed.
Personally for me, it'd be criminal to sacrifice handling for the sake of looks.
I'd love coilies, just can't afford them, so for £150 or whatever it was I paid you really can't go wrong
I think it is the heat sheild, had a look under in my dinner and its exactly what you men said, the metal has corroded around the washer and its hanging down, they make the underside of these cars out of tin foil??
My p1ssin uncle (well step mums bro) aint, I don't think he's ever took it over the 5k rev mark, poor car, he says he bought it for its looks rather than performance, I have no idea why on earth somebody would buy a focus for its looks
Seen you a few times but you never seem to make the most of the lovely twisties...
But the other day you did to my suprise lol, I was the black 182 behind you, think you nearly lost it on that last corner :rasp:
Around 3k revs I get loud rattles from the left side of the exhaust at the back, suspect that around that rev mark the exhaust vibrates in a particular way, it's doing my head in now though...
Just wondering has anybody had the vibration problem before? It's no doubht catching at a particular...
