Right chaps I want to turn my living room tv into a decent smart tv streaming etc. Currently I quickly download new films and fire them on a USB et voila or use Netflix etc on the 360. I also have full Sky package.
Guy I know set up XBMC through his Amazon TV. Sounds great and constantly...
Yes please. http://www.evo.co.uk/ford/14937/ford-gt-concept-unveiled-new-supercar-set-for-launch-in-2016
Concept of course. I imagine it will be a special car. Love that Ford have a supercar.
After a small rant by myself someone suggested making a bad advert thread, well here it is!
I think this section is best suited for it.
First up the greatest Saxo VTS in the world...
I know most have seen the detail thread but I thought i'd keep this thread updated with little additions etc. Marc has a set of plates ready for me and see the pictures below of the new key that is was desperately needed! Really fancy some facelift rear lights, bloody 4 required! Clever Swedish...
Evening chaps and chapesses! A cracking Monday night read for you, I hope.
First up, thanks to Craig and Stuart (Spoony) for coming through and helping me out with this rather large Swedish bus! Both guys certainly know how to polish a car and the LSP, well I have Craig to thank for that. I...
Hello people! Well my "winter hack" of 2013 lasted a bit longer than anticipated :o but alas I sold it eventually as usual (still shouldn't have sold that bloody ST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i'm a dick I know!) Anyway it's been a good test bed for experiments and longterm tests.
As many know Hydro2...
Picked up in Stuggart followed by a 2,500 mile European tour, Monaco etc.
I was lucky enough to have a passenger ride and I came out it speechless. The electric motor is hilarious. Shocked at how comfortable and sorta quiet it is at low speeds with petrol engaged. The biggest thing though...
Helllllo chaps! My Brother in law has been at me for a while to detail his M3, he's owned one before and an E36 Dakar Yellow M3, alongside Evos et etc over the years, Good taste.
Enjoy the pics....
On arrival after spending the day with me and the OH...

Hey chaps, you may recognise this one. Now owned by a fellow member Gaz_H after being owned by another 2 locals.
It was needing a bit of polishing tbf, just to restore some gloss but what a cracking Monaco, it's been well looked after over the years! Some afters. Front end had been painted so...
It's been on sale for more than 4 years so it looks like a cracking update!
CarPro blurb...
Customers asked for more durability so this is what we mostly worked on,
New version has more Silane concentration in it and more bonding material to help longer durability.
it has same high gloss ...
Another small write up with some before and after shots. Really really enjoyable detail, what a lovely car. I know it's only a facelift of the Mk5 but it feels much more modern now.
Befores...

I was going to make one just for me but I thought it wasn't a bad idea to keep updating the thread with new phones.
Now we have:
Z2 - S5- M8 - iPhone6 (soon) - Note4 (soon) - Nexus (is the 5 the latest? Due a 6 soon?) and some LG model.
What have you got? I'm due an upgrade at the end...
Well this is a weird one but for years i've spotted cars daily that just catch the eye. Random spots that I think deserve a shout, on looks or cool factor!
Pics and vids welcome. 3 so far today...
355 GTS in Red...
Alfa Brera S, Black, gunmetal alloys, utterly beautiful...
Hi chaps, it's been a while!
I was lucky enought to get my hands on Joe's new UG Focus RS. I'm a big fan of the Mk2 and Joe's is the perfect spec. My neighbours might disagree right enough, was rather loud popping and banging it's way down my street at 7am!
Anyway, apologies about the...
I'm a massive Alfa fan, the 8C is still one of the most beautiful cars ever made. I love the 4C also, the spider is impressive...
Cool alternative to an Elise.
It's new!, not quite an A1 quattro but with a remap it will be insane. They've grown on me a lot as I quite like small nimble cars. 3 door in Yellow with full spec for me!

Oh my, other levels of want, I do like the CLA at times, Red AMG model is superb looking but the S-Class looks great. Not cheap but what a great alternative to a boring Bmw equivalent. Story here...

Specced properly it's...
How are they looking guys, would maybe consider one in a few months as a little bargain but prices still seem to be a tad high-ish, depending on condition of course. Looking to spend around £1000 ish.
I'd consider, Titanium first, Black, flamer possibly but not fussed about that, sorry DJW! :o
Just a few afters and some thoughts on the coating again. Should mention that correction ended up around 95%, the paintwork for the miles is in superb condition. There are no deep marks like you'd expect. Was very surprised.
Double wipe down with Spies Hecker panel wipe...

Hi chaps, i've been looking forward to this one... just a bit! Martin (Noddie) was kind enough to trust me with his cracking Twingo RS a while back and asked me if I would give his brand new Fiesta ST a detail once he picked it up. Gadly!
Now not much in the way of process pictures. With other...
Hi chaps just a few pics of Foz's lovely Golf R. Really is a lovely looking thing and great colour for it. Apologies before hand. My phone died, having some charging issues! Fml!

I wanted a better title... i'm slacking :(
4 cars, 12 months... and here's another! A tad excited about this one for some reason although I do feel about 18 driving it.. i'm currently not giving a f**k though.
Uber spec, most sought after colour, 170bhp, £200 a year insurance, 40mpg (46/47 on...
Restoration? Maybe not the right word. Ignore the state of the place it was a bit messy last week but I hope the pictures speak for themselves about the quality of our work.
No at this stage I would say that the job went from bad to worse, initially it was in for complete stonechip removal...
Title was a mouthful, just how I like it...
Anyway, little family favour this one and I got to spend a day and a bit with the car, detailing and a nice drive. It's a simply epic car, really just does everything so well, except pass a petrol station.
I'll let the pics do all the talking...
Yes please.
I love the saloon because it's rare and if anything quite cool because it's not an avant. Possibly not as good looking as the avant but very purposeful all the same. Sadly I don't think Black suits this one but none the less...
