You can get the rechargeable cosmo polisher which is the same as the meguiars:

Meguiars costs nearer £100 which gets you an extra battery...
Seems a good price for what is essentially a chip upgrade rather than remap as it will be the same for all cars rather than tailored to each individual.
But then a remap to your own mods is gonna cost more so you pays your money....
ChipWizards are highly regarded. That's where I got mine done which made 10bhp from running 2.0 modded engine on 1.8 chip to 2 litre, resulting in 190 bho and that's without the cams being timed in properly.
And now seems more available over here:

Sure some places that do Cliosport discount might offer a better price. Carnoisseur for example or Demon Tweeks.
This place is cheapest on ebay when I was looking for just wheels:

Got a steal from Halfords as they priced them up wrong at £524 for 16" with Hankook tyres. Toyo upgrade was silly money so bought them with £30 worth of Halfords vouchers i already had and got £500 worth for £450 through staff discount scheme. Sold the Hankooks for £130 so not the rims realy...
Had my wheels delivered without the tyres fitted so I could sell on the Hankooks and get some better rubber.
Also allowed me to weight the wheels.
16" in Graphite finish weighed 6.8Kgs each on digital bathroom scales. OZ claim 6.7Kgs so not bad in all.
When I was looking at Turini's...
My F1's in 195/45/16 went up a fiver each within a week but went back to normal a couple of days later.
Ordered them last weekend and had them delivered yesterday. Suprised I got them at all as they put the first 2 lines of work address and town/postcode of my home address on the delivery...
F1's for me too. PE2's would have been £60 more for 4 so decided against them.
F1 is probably still the best wet weather tyre and would rather sacrifice some dry performance for that.
195/45/15 seem a drastic tyre choice as standard is 185/55/15. Most go down 1 profile ie 195/50/15 as more tyres are available and are cheaper. 195/45/15 is dropping down two profiles so would expect a much harder ride.
You may get away with 195/50/15 if on same axle as thought it was OK to...
Back at just over £50 a tyre (not including clisoport discount) at mytyres following hike of £5 earlier in week.
Just order 4. Was gonna have to plump for the PE2's as they would only have been a tenner a corner more but to do that now would cost £60 and don't think they are worth that as...
Yeah £130 on ebay.
If you end up getting them from Halfords let me know as may be able to get you the gift vouchers I got through my work disocunt site (motivano) so that knocks 10 per cent off as they post you the vouchers yet you only pay 90 per cent of their value.
Doesn't look like...
Everywhere Ipriced aroung for 195/45/16 were pricey. Was gonna get Eagle F1s which were £50 earlier in week at Mytyres and now £55. Think PE2's are a tenner dearer.
Costco fit for £69 and some forums get disocunt with costco. There is a voucer doing the rounds for 20 per cent off 4 tyres...
Got mine for a bargain from Halfords as they were displaying the wrong ticket price and had to honour it. Labelled at £524.99 with tyres and on till were £700 or something daft.
My Oz Ultraleggeras in 16" Graphite worked out to be £350 after selling the tyres on and paying with gift vouchers...
Got my FK's yonks ago. They force you to run quite a bit of neg camber to the extent I was wearing inside of tyre too much. Camber bolts corrected this to about 1.5 degrees neg camber.
My Valver before I went the Hybrid route got 148 bhp from Magnex inc Decat, BMC CDA and BBPT chip. Then...
Had problems with the non dust seal type then? Pistons?
Think that was why I was going to get Midilite rather than Dynalite for that reason but need to find someone who can sort brackets out.
Heard the hub needs some work to fit the calipers to normal sized disks, something that is...
Was gonna get Turinis and then found the standard cup one is 8 kilos. Plus everyone has them.
Got my OZ Ultraleggera wheels in graphite colour (actually a lighter grey than I thought they would be) which I need to pick up. Will see if they are anywhere near the OZ claimed 6.7 kilos each as...
Brittania tyres also do this. From experience of having the back end go on me twice before when hitting diesel on the road, you cannot normally catch it which in principle is the reason why they always put most grip on the rear.
Probably worse fo rthose who run with stripped out interiors...
No the rear, which has less weight i.e. no engine to keep it loaded needs most grip as it will break away when it loses traction, hence why you always put newest rubber on the back of a front wheel drive car.
Fifth Gear did a test a while back and showed the handling of a car with just new...
Yeah working for o2 we use a site called Motivano for our staff discounts. Probably same as NUS discount at Apple. Got the Pink 4GB for my GF today at £121. Not loads off but still the same.
Get more off at Holiday Autos than my GF does with her NHS staff discount.
On download Itunes 7 has gone through my library searching for gapless so hope if I resynch my ipo it will install the gapless tracks.
Here's hoping !!!!
Was hoping gapless would be part of itunes not ipod software. Main gripe with my ipod as most albums I want on it are either mixed or sequenced which gaps ruin !!!
All new ipods/nano's on site now. And my o2 discount works.
