So this car sold when it was completely standard The Guy I sold it to, then sold it to his friend. Who cant drive...

It's just a simple case of you get what you pay for. I used to think the same as you "f**k it, it looks the same". But I'm speaking from experience now, its worth holding out for something decent.

Everyone on here is f**king retarded. Buy Lenso's, and its f**king clear they are lensos. They look like they are made from plastic and will be demolished by most pot holes. No I'm not overeacting, ive had reps and I know they are made of cheese. Also, expensive wheels are more an investment...

Get 13's dont be homo... (These would look so cool) http://www.wheel-whores.com/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=10704&title=borbet-atiwe-13x7-et20&cat=4 The perfect wheels for this, IMO, would be Renault Alpine turbines. Or some compomotives. Modelled both by MK2 Golfs... clean 2 by Andy...

OMG, give me this car. You clearly dont deserve it. DO IT PROPPA Banded steels is fine btw, get some G60 steels like Winston has. They are a nice style and look well with some dishy dish dish dish.

OMG NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE! Oh wait, its been all over the internet all f**king year and its shite.

If you buy shitty fake wheels for this I'll come round yer house and stamp on all your toys.

Has a bit more rake as the backs been raised about 5-10mm, because it was scraping a bit too much on the arches (Winter tyres too btw, done propaaaaaa). Obviously prefer the splits, but they have already been pitted by the small amount of frost we've had already.

It's on its winter wheels as the Image splits were getting shagged. http://lowlifeuk.com/?p=2263 Zi's Z3, winter spec. by Jason.Easton, on Flickr Zi's Z3, winter spec. by Jason.Easton, on Flickr Zi's Z3, winter spec. by Jason.Easton, on Flickr I prefer the anthracite side myself.

Less chance of me turning my car into a DeLorean then?

Okay so I really dont want to use anything harsh since I dont have access to a paint depth gauge so my new shopping list is... Green Hexlogic pad. Scholl s17+ and anyone recommend a good finishing polish?

I'm always right. Always.

Pretty much the same decision process I went through when buying my Golf. Yeah my Golf was only £7k but obviously I earn less ;). Still, I thought "f**k it, I'm young and want a half decent car". This thing is gorgeous, best colour too!

So start with the Scholl and see if it comes up well, if its still s**t then hit it with the #105? Just going by recommendations by people on Edition. Mainly people with the same car :)

So going by advice I've had, and a bit of other research and shopping around reading reviews etc. here's where I am. Pads (In order of use): Chem Guys Hex Yellow. 3M Yellow. 3M Black Compounds/Polish (In order of Use): Megs 105. Scholl S17+ Megs 205. Glaze: Poorboys Black hole. (Use...

That kit is awesome. As said, it suits the age of the car. Now drop it on awesome wheels as well.

More video....

Thats a quick gearbox.

I was thinking the Polish (Click) and Finishing (click) pads from 3M, then maybe Poorboys SSR1 Followed by their Pro Polish then black hole glaze? (Its a dark blue car).

Just had a read. Very very good write up! I'm only part way through but already realised I probably don't need very harsh pads or anything like I thought I would. I'm only used to polishing carbon stuff at work with a hand polisher and 3M Fast cut. I've applied a glaze to a car actually, but...

Was on the van for £119.99 down from £139.99. I got it for £100 as it was the last one and he was about to send it back! (Model No. STASP1) It's an M14 spindle thread, has a little LED screen to show you the RPM. Goes from 700 to 3000 rpm. Any of you recommend specifically any good compounds...

Thought they may be the ones to go for. Thanks! Will check them out :)

It isn't a DA, had a play with it at work. Has loads of speeds and an LED display etc.

Just bought myself the Blue-Point "Electrical sander/polisher" off of my Snap-On man for cheapity cheap. Just wondering what sort of polishing gear you guys would recommend? Basically want to get the paint on my Golf looking better. It came with a 180mm polishing backing plate, which as far as...

I think it looks atrocious, personally. Like Noddy with down syndrome. Sure its a nice car to drive and stuff but meh. Can't spell Alfa. Can't comment on cars. I've expressed this opinion so much before. It's just a hideous design and the new one looks even worse!

Funny you should say that Laura! Bloke at my work has an A1, and he keeps complaining about an annoying buzz/rattle from one of the speakers. The dealer has had the car 4 or 5 times, and been f**king useless. Fitted what they actually called an "Anti vibration kit". So made that up.

Great pictures! 1 series is still the ugliest car ever made though, I'd rather walk than own one. Alfa is gorgeous :). Nice location too.

Can I just say Turner is right. MK4 platform cars are NOT and I repeat NOT drivers cars. MK5 Platform though, awesome and for true winners. Hi. Love the Recaros. No Tartan though? Shame.

I dunno, every time I've had chingchongtyres I've nearly died. Parad Spec 2's in the wet as well. SWEET BABY JESUES. TBF someone at work just bought a 09 plate Golf R32. Tax on that JEBUS.
