    insurance quote fun!

    Thats bloody good, I though £750 on a 172 at 21 with no points was good! I am on Direct Line, might look at Admiral for next time.

    N95 Software Update

    Hi guys, sorry this has probably been asked before, but can anyone help me at all? My dads just got a new N95 but I am not with him at the moment. Apparently it keeps freezing so I suggested he update the software, but he doesn't know how. Has anyone got some instructions that I can pass on to...

    Sub-forum?!?!?!

    They should just have one for cars and one for everything else... Actually no thats a rubbish idea! Any mods, feel free to delete this thread BTW, not really sure why I made it!

    Sub-forum?!?!?!

    We are the new "Gaming chat" e.g. officially a minority full of geeks. Sadly I visit that one quite often too...hmmm. ;)

    Opinions on wheel wax and rim wax

    Not used either of those I'm afraid, but heard a few negatives about the Rim Wax. I can vouch for the 476s though, especially over SRP and a sealant, such as EGP if you have any?

    Auto Glym Tyre Dressing

    I would get Blackfire gel. Ok so its not available in bulk as far as I know, but you probably will only need to apply it half as much, although probably less. I have recently done a 250 mile motorway journey in HORRENDOUS conditions and 4 weeks of normal driving in rain before that and still...

    Tom tom one or garmin??

    Garmin is slightly better but both are good. BMW use Garmin PNDs, if that means anything...

    Snow Foam Query

    SSF is really good even with just the Super Spray system I am currently using. Really rate the CG Maxi Suds too, but its like £6 compared to the £11 for the SSN and about a fiffth of the quantity. Actually my SSN was free as the container split in transit and Tim @ CYC refunded me the whole...

    Poorboys Wheel Sealant

    ^ Its a good method. The 476s can be layered too. Might not even be necessary for the sealant, I'm just a bit of a loser ;)

    Sealed/Waxed Wheel Q

    Well sealed wheels can be done with a spray of water and some shampoo solution - I just use whatever I have left over from the body work (normally 2/3 buckets worth due to the 4 bucket method!) in conjunction with a mf wash mitt (think this is the perfect use for it, as I didn't like using it on...

    Detailing in the dark

    I just noticed the nice friendly mechanic who MOTd my car has left some nice marks on the paint on both front quarter panels...won't **** off this Leeds based garage as they are apparently highly rated on here (I thought they were s**t though, overcharged me, kept me waiting over an hour after...

    keep the clio or get 350z?

    Get a well rounded and reliable two-seater sports car or make an unreliable car even worse and unsellable in the future?!!? Absolute no brainer as far as I am concerned - the 350Z is a great car especially the LCI version. However for that money then I would look into an E46 M3, but thats just...

    Snow Foam Query

    As I used some this morning I was wondering the same, it certainly smells quite like TFR I have used, but well diluted and rinsed off I'm sure its not that bad.

    Poorboys Wheel Sealant

    I use the SRP, Sealant (currently CG Jet Seal) and a couple of layers of 476s. Last time I applied the wax was in Early September and still coming up well now and beading like the body panels...but will look to polish and reseal over the course of the holidays. Screw revision lol.

    Detailing in the dark

    I started at about noon, planned on at least cleaning the car well, SRPing by PC, windows and wheels and arches all dressed readyt for sealing and waxing over the week, but all I managed to get done wash the wash before it started to rain, I then had to drive to town so now its filthy again. A...

    Carlack - Opinions Needed

    One of the best CG products is the microfibre wash...I never leave home without it... ;) Their EZ Glaze and shampoos are also used here.

    lol. Touche. Mighty retort. FM got served here, here and here.

    to have pc'd or mopped, that is the question

    I thinkn he means after the time when you burnt through some paint with a PC died, and 6 people died, and Christmas was cancelled? That was the rumour anyway... ;)

    Carlack - Opinions Needed

    I don't buy into hype either...but I have used a lot of the CG products and many of them re really good. The 50/50 wax is still brilliant too. I don't think any of us recommend products we havent used!

    Carlack - Opinions Needed

    I'd go for either the Jeffs like Rich says or Chemical Guys Body Blitz spray sealant.

    which sat nav?

    The Garmin Nuvi range would be my choice, personal preference over an equivalent TomTom but both are good. Garmin just seem a bit quicker loading up and have a few more features. The TMC traffic receiver is good too.

    Great M3 detail**

    Ah good choice, I worked for BMW UK for a year and think that is my favourite M car, apart from maybe the new M3. The 135 Coupe is an absolute weapon too, with tuning that thing could be phenomenal. Have to say I am quite jealous, well, apart from the fuel costs lol. How much did you pay for it...

    Great M3 detail**

    Too far lol.... That chin on the right looks a little like a certain Rich Treen though!!!

    to have pc'd or mopped, that is the question

    I'd go for a PC polish before a rotary, can always step up if need be. Not sure who lives around that neck of the woods. Expect to pay £100 - the sky for a session, you normally get what you pay for though, decent products and technique do make a difference for creating a really decent finish.

    Best compact digital camera

    I have a Sony T10 which takes incredibly detailed and vivid photos. The design is in my opinion the best too. Think the direct replacement is the T100, in black like mine it looks the nuts too, if you are a gadget *****...

    SE W960i released tomorrow

    They just bum the iPhone though on there... TBH I am still looking at the LG Viewty just because its small, it works and looks good. I have a good camera and iPod so having an 8GB phone doesn't really matter that much to me.

    SE W960i released tomorrow
