You can also use peanut oil.

I had a go at this yesterday too.. unfortunately still waiting on replacement washer blanks though.

Could have been CupDude as he said the other day he worked down the Gyle.

Will be fine, i've got the bigger version for my plasma and they are well made.

Should have bought a BlackBerry:D

Nice buy for that price. You could buy a low milage engine, sort the rest out and still make mucho money on it.

So......... how much?

I did 4 or 5 coats on a Leon with a panel pot and still had loads left. Banana Armour is a hard wax, so you notice if you scoop a little out and then add it to your foam pad it will last alot longer than using your hands.

Or both.. nowt wrong with having a clean car , the fun bit is getting it dirty again.

I can see him in the first 2 pics, so doesn't look like there was any PP carried out. If you move quick enough and have a short name it can be done:D

Work between Sighthill North/South and sometimes Princes House in Glasgow. Don't work for HBOS though.

Front looks a decent height but the back looks like my old Fiesta when the springs snapped.

I work in the big HBOS building sometimes ( try to work from home as much as I can!)

As above, I was coming out of my work and was a few cars behind you in my Cup. Your plate ended WRC and i'm pretty sure there was a CS sticker on the bumper. Nice little car (but I would say that:rasp:)

Gonna be about ease of use in the Winter, garage is full of bikes and motorbikes at the moment so a quick 2 minute top up will be handy Will be going back to wax come Spring.

My Victoria Concours is the cheapest wax I have but always the one I got to. Just bought the Werkstat Acrylic Kit for my Mondial Blue though. Clark over at Polished Bliss said 5 layers and it was up with Vintage.

http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=2682 K-tec sell something similar for the 1*2. Well spats, but i'd say a carbon wrap would be cheapest option.

Thats sounds more like a repair service (touch up) rather than a full refurb. If they can do it in 3 hours, there must be a load of them doing it, or they are just filling and trying to blend the paint.

Ok cheers mate, i'm not keen on spending £70 on a couple of plates at the moment. I'll just leave the washers in just now and get the blanks next year. Might even have a go at making some custom ones.

Looks nice, where are the smaller headlight washers from, or are they just bungs? As my Cup has the washers instead of blanking plates after the bumper got caught on a kerb!

It's not good, plus the wheel bearing are needing done, needs new discs, radiator burst etc. I thought going VAG would have been a good idea after my Alfa!

Yeah mate, not posted on there for ages though as the paint on the Ibiza failed big time. Paint faded UNDER the clear coat, and then the clear coat started to peel! I'll be doing a detail on the lovely Mondial Blue this weekend though.

Hi, I signed up here a year ago with the intention of getting a 172 Cup, I ended up getting a Ibiza Cupra. Well another year on, the Ibiza is causing me more problems than I thought a VAG car could. So when I saw a lowish milage Cup up for sale I just had to have it. Will post up some...

Was a wheel badly damaged when you hit a kerb? Could have a buckled wheel.?

http://www.dvlaregistrations.co.uk/home/en/Search/p/prefix?searched=yes&prefix=R&numbers=all&letter1=C&letter2=U&letter3=P&x=46&y=18 yup it's on the DVLA, All Reg Transfers will do is buy it from DVLA and then up the cost selling it on to you. No hidden fees with DVLA either.

keep an eye out for me in my Alfa 146 as my missus lives in Chapelhall. Should have a 172 Cup in the next few months though.

I wonder if the car takes 3 minutes to start up and 5 minutes to turn off like windows?

All Purpose Cleaner.

Cheers, the Cupra was sold yesterday(owed my dad a load of cash I didn't see any of the cash!:( ) so a few months of saving and i shall be on the hunt for my Cup now (and some half leathers).

You won't see me there mate... i'm not a chavver haha
