    Unable to insure car??

    Sorry mate - I wash cars for a living. See dirt, clean dirt is as intelligent as I get. What’s private mode?

    Polycarbonate windows

    I got mine from ACW Motorsport Plastics on the outskirts of Bristol. Been in 5 years now and no complaints. 👌🏽

    Nimbus 197

    Have you had it diagnosed or are you just aiming the parts cannon and hoping for the best? Does the new ECU need to be coded?

    The best wheel brush I’ve ever used is a Meguiars one. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284538428207?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=mt__gemorui&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=yuhFMh5BRYC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

    That lance should pop off the end of the trigger. Don’t bother with pump up sprayers, they’re a waste of time.

    Ph1 172 Refurbishment.

    That’s the badgers. I honestly thought they’d be shite due to the price but 2 years on and they’re as good as new still. (Except the one time I used my impact instead of my drill and it shattered in to pieces 😂)

    Please can anyone help Gf lost her keys clio mk2

    Cheaper to buy key, ECU, lock barrel and UCH and swap the lot over. Lots of people sell complete sets on eBay. (I had to do the same)

    The VW Audi Skoda Seat Thread

    Does anyone have a 2017 or newer golf 2.0 tdi?? I’ve got this plug, that’s clearly been attached at some point. But for the life of me I can’t see where it goes. This is it at full stretch, so it has to be in there somewhere.

    Sadly the bodywork lets it down. It needs a full repaint really. But I’m hoping I can get my money back (circa £5k) from someone that wants a tidy old school daily driver or maybe someone that wants a rolling resto and they can get the paint done in time. It’s not a dog, far from it. But every...

    What is the best headlight bulb for a 172 Cup?

    Osram nightbreakers in my son’s Astra. Bloody brilliant!

    All done. Just leave the dehumidifier in it until Monday now and it will be bone dry and smelling fresh. That’s all for this week. I’ll update next week when I do the underneath and exterior and polish it etc. Bosh. 💪🏽

    Yes mate. But they can go on next week when I do the exterior.

    Next up - with the help of my badass light. Which doesn’t fit old cars as they’re too narrow. 😂 So a rig up was needed; Rear seat base removed and all cleaned and air lined out. 👌🏽 Seats wet vac’d after a good vacuum and drill brush scrub. Snappy’s work was given a wipe over;

    Boot area next. That was howling too. Spare wheel and wheel well cleaned with hot water, Elbow grease and a scouring pad; A light dusting of silver to freshen it up; Dressed the spare (which was still at 30psi! lol) and refitted it all;

    Cleaning the interior today. Barf. It’s been off the road since forever so was minging. Here are some pics. First up, remove door handles, remove switchery and leave in hot water/Elbow grease overnight. Came in this morning and job done! All Ming successfully dissolved. Primered...

    No. I haven’t paid the bill for this one yet. I don’t even know how much the bill is but I do know I can’t afford it. 🤦‍♂️😂 I just took it round the block again. It’s f**king mi t to drive. So so good.

    dash top won't come out..!

    If mine ever gets stuck, I push down on the dash with one hand and forward with the other. Seems to untangle the Tabs. I think some come out perfect due to being new/never removed and others that have been butchered back in in the past are the culprits.

    Time & Attendance/HR systems

    At my last place we had ‘Edays’. Sickness, holiday, overtime, bonus etc etc for all 800 employees. As staff We could all access our own portal to request holidays and OT pay and as a boss I could authorise things that needed it, was a fairly straightforward and easy system to use.

    Billabong with a climate pack! (Climate control and electric sunroof) that’s probably one of the rarest Clios around. They were brand new for £179 deposit and £179pm. We weren’t allowed to discount them and only got paid £35 per deal as they literally flew out the door. Nobody paid extra for...

    Kev this thing does 1500 miles a week. When o say I cleaned it I mean I got it wet, soaped it up, rinsed it off and drove off. 15 mins tops. Just so I can see out of the windows. 😂😂
