i did indeed. the ultimate clio ;) but think a trophy would be a better choice, just for the seats lol.

really its the seats (recaros) and the suspension, sachs fully dampened suspension, cant remember the exact figure but its around £3k to replace the whole suspension. also it was a limited run of 500.

with recaros, speedlines, ipod, privacy glass, and all other options? i specced the car up on the website and came to £17,800 (approx), so you cant get the same car brand new for £13k.

just tell them it was part of the deal on colection and refuse to acept it without them. then they are left with a new car, that will be pre owned and registered.

same, have never seen one out on the roads, only ever at a dealership.

for my car? i know the depreciation is horrific, but mine is realy a well specced car (in my eyes anyway), i dont think £12k is a bad price in the private market for a 197, have been offered £11,500 trade in. as for the trophy, i think around £10k would get a good 'un

probably a bit late now mate, deal will be signed. they will prob want £60+ from you for them.

I am putting in an offer on a house today, and though it will be a good few weeks before i find out about it (and possibly some bidding to do), i am weighing up the idea of selling the 197. Reason... Selling the 197 for say £12-13k would free up alot of monthly cash (£291.00 to be exact)...

have you? will bring my spray bottle in by then.

he used a sponge!!!

haha aberdeenshire!! iam gonna phone him up and ask why it looks like the millenium falcon at the back!

like the carbon diffuser.

thats class!

nah, environment i work in, it is more than dust.

both stunning cars. think i would have the GT though.

yeah i will normally QD as a whole re wash and dry seems a bit extreme.

you wash after polishing!!

shower of w*****s!!!! i currently have a sony ericsson k810i. had it 9 months, and, as with all sony ericssons with joysticks, the joystick is fucked! happened twice now, so phoned up yesterday to complain and try and get an upgrade, as currently spending about £100 a month on bills, so...

hijacking the thread, but do you guys re-wash the car once clayed or do you wipe down with QD?

think i got mine at ultimate finish.

rich, thats the dirtiest i have seen your car!! on topic, swissvax for me. love it now, thanks to ali's recommendation.

racing stripes ftw!! :rasp: reason - because they were on the car anyway (along with "michelin" and "elf" ones), thought it looked different to other 197's and that it wenrt well with the wheels.

yeah, i have been happy with the jeffs anytime i have used it, same as the blitz in terms of application i guess. but not used the blitz to compare. thats the stuff like curdled milk isnt it?

is it? i am still using the jeffs stuff. quite like it, but hardly used it. nah, i quite like it. bottle is almost done though, so open to suggestions.

people keep saying that, but in all the time i have had it, i thought it was brilliant. suds up really well and lasts the whole bucket instead of disappearing. really slick on the paint work too. nah, its just a normal shampoo. have totally fallen in love with the onyx now, couldnt get the...

was going to clay it, but what would you recommend? process was going to be pre wash with foam gun and snow foam orange degreaser on wheels and arches wash car with maxi suds and mitt clay with appropriate clay wash again dry polish with menz 3.02 first on cutting pad glaze with...

does anyone know how good subaru paint is? my mate has just bought an 1993 import impreza in mica metallic black (quite similar to black gold actually) and i reluctantly agreed to see what i can do with it at some point. on the whole paint work looks ok, though there is quite a bit of...

if that ever came out i would have one!
