Due to buying the cleanest car I’ve ever laid eyes on, I need time knowledge laying on me! I want to keep on top of keeping the car spotless, but it is a daily driver. So obviously I will be getting the car dirty, especially this time of year. Basically, I’d like to know what sort of products...

So I’ve got an alpine HU installed at the minute, it does everything I need it to,but it’s ugly as sin! It sticks out too far from the dash, if I was to push it in any further, the fascia surround would pop off. It also has a massive volume knob sticking out the front of it. Has anyone got a HU...

Is it just me, or am I missing something with these tyres? Everyone raves about them, but I’m finding it really difficult to get the power down. At first I thought it was the road surface, but I find them skitting across the road even in straight lines! May need to try something else. Had...

Massive thanks to @Degsy1967 for being an honest and upfront bloke. Just got home from a 7hour round trip after purchasing and picking up D11CUP. What an absolute cracker of a car. Never seen a used car look so clean and well looked after. The car is a credit to all of it's previous owners...

Bit bored after work, so cracked a beer and was looking through some old pics, so thought I'd start a car history thread... No photos of my first car, a 1987 Mk4 Escort 1.4l. Woeful car, 5 doors and slow as s**t! Wrote it off after crashing into my neighbour's van :grin: Second car was a 1985...

So, I've just been to see an Inferno 182 with both cup packs at a garage in Halifax, its got 106k on it, looks tidy in the photos, but its at £2,695, so for that price i'm expecting it to be really tidy with a massive wedge of history! I gets there (only local, hence me looking before i've sold...
