    Loads of people do it. I like Autoglym aerosol as it’s a bit more tame. Autosmart do a one called midnight and it’s probably the best, but only available in trigger application and it gets everywhere. Not ideal.

    I didn’t need to on this, it in the absolutely fucked stuff, a tin of satin black paint or a black carpet dye works wonders. Less is more, but it’s a godsend on the bangers.

    A bit closer, to show just how f**king horrible it was and how s**t poverty carpets are for trapping dirt. (honestly, I must have called the previous owner every derogatory term known during that. I f**king hate her.)

    Same one as I have. Bought it about 3 years ago for about a tenner and still going strong. (Just do t get lazy when you can’t find your drill and use an impact gun. Bristles and plastic eeeeeerywhere.

    AG interior cleaner is the absolute nuts. Smells so good too. Don’t use it on leather though, it pulls the dye out.

    Glaceol RX Type E LDR Blue coolant sent by mistake or genuinely the right stuff?

    @lemonnobby - I’m sure you mentioned something about blue coolant?? Or type D being NLa??

    Glaceol RX Type E LDR Blue coolant sent by mistake or genuinely the right stuff?

    Yup. I emptied mine, flushed it, ran it with just water in it for about half an hour. Basically until the fan kicked in, then drained again and flushed what I could then put the right stuff in. Don’t know if that’s the correct method but it worked and it hasn’t blown up. 😂 (My car uses orange...

    Never mix coolants. It can crystallise (sp??). Using a different one is fine, just make sure you flush out all of the old stuff first.

    Where to buy numberplates online?

    We make our own but if we need an odd size we always use Fancyplates. So much easier than driving to the local motor factors with paperwork and then trying to park… f**k all that.

    I was going to suggest ‘Mind’ for the same reason.

    Go very very careful on Bumpers. Can go pear shaped quite quickly. 😂

    I’m not exporting it mate. Far too many things can go wrong. And if he buys it and hates it when it arrives, then what?? 😂

    How much %age increase!

    We sold a VW sharan to a guy yesterday that had exactly this. Bin lorry went down the side of his 2018 Sharan and damaged 2 doors. No other damage. Our Bodyshop place would have charged £800/1000 to fix it no bother. But because it’s insurance and they need brand new parts the doors had to...

    How much %age increase!

    This. I always buy the cheapest nastiest shittest policy I can find, just to stay legal and nothing more. They are absolute bandits and will gladly take our money but when we need them they just bend us over and go in dry. f**k ‘em. My insurance is up for renewal end of next month. Broker...

    Restoring Little Bluey - my 182 FF ClioSport in Racing Blue

    I find unplugging and plugging in the uch numerous times (10+) usually gives a temporary fix - this will then confirm if it’s the UCH at fault. Only if it twice admittedly but both times that ‘fixed’ it so I knew it had to be sent off for repair.

    Disconnecting battery for storage

    I just disconnect the negative lead and leave the car as is. Then a few days before you want to fire it up again, stick a charger on it to make sure it’s topped up. A good battery shouldn’t go flat flat if it’s not connected to anything.

    Advice - Looking to buy a RB 182

    I think you’re underselling that tbh. I’d be asking for £5995 for that all day long. In fact I’d probably start it at £6495.

    Something very satisfying about new premium rubber on freshly powder coated rims… And fitting them was a nause. I only fit big ballon tyres and they’re easy. These stupid little cotton reels were hard work. 😂

    Which is why I just send them away to be done now. I don’t have the time or the patience for it. Unless someone is paying me. 😂

    Mate I don’t think I’ll be doing any more sadly. I’ve got the RB to do next and I think I’m done with Renaults after that sadly. Just far too expensive now to get them anywhere near a decent standard. And that’s if you can even get the parts. (Apart from the Mk1, that’s going nowhere)
