    Orange Crush

    Anybody used this? Just ordered some to try on the Inferno. Will follow up with thoughts after I've detailed the car again. Ta.

    I reckon less talking about it and more buying it.

    Show us your brushes

    I use Megs brush, find it's fine as long as you make sure it's not soaking wet. End of the day any brush isn't going to remove a vast amount of brake dust, but they do a good job of loosening it up. I jetwash them then spray with AG Wheel Cleaner, leave it on for a few minutes and then use an...

    Smartwax Free with evo Subscription

    It's repackaged Chemical Guys stuff, and yes you'd apply after SRP.

    iPhone - more than the sum of its parts.

    I'm with you on the syncing side of things, I'll tell you when to sync thank you! Much prefer to have a phone seperate to an iPod personally, if only for battery purposes, and Apple being homo's make it impossible on the move to swap to a spare battery.

    Yeah with a contract that'll cost you £900 a year.

    Hinckley A5 / M69 this morning

    First time I've seen 4 Sports on my commute to work, saw 3 coming down the A5 at 7:55am this morning, almost in convoy but for a few cars - 172 Cup, Silver 172 and a Monaco 172. Then saw a Black 182 on the M69 leaving at M6 junction this morning, was missing a wing mirror SA54 plate. (I was in...

    Realistic MPG for a 182

    I get 30/31 on an average week, thats hooning and driving in commuter traffic on mixed roads and motorways.

    Assassins Creed average rating rocked

    Disappointing given they spent over 2 years producing it. :(

    FAO yozzasport,

    Cupra R splitter fitted to my 172

    Looks quite nice, apart from the corners. Looks as though it doesn't follow the line of the bumper properly but for 1/5th the cost of a KTR CF splitter it's not a bad compromise. But B pillars look shocking.

    FAO yozzasport,

    Fred, tried PMing you just now but your inbox is full, can you empty it please? (mwaahh) But you should perhaps enable people to send emails via your profile, as they're disabled as it stands.

    Engine cleaning question

    Red has no clearcoat on it which is why it's prone to oxidation. I'd be careful about hosing the engine tbh, better off using a vapouriser and working on small areas at a time. After you've finished take it out for a rag and dry it all out.

    Standard alarm 172....??

    It should have an alarm, they're fitting when they come into the UK at dockside. Doesn't it have the sensors on the A pillars, or the red LED next to the gearstick?

    Standard alarm 172....??

    Cobra = UK standard alarm, alarm button on key. Sigma = UK import alarm, additional key fob. (Import cars won't have window etching, or locking wheel nuts as standard, oh and there's bugger all difference in prices really)

    Radio Code for 182

    Most decent car radio places can unlock them for you for £20-30.

    Is this worth buying? a 1.7 turbo'd volvo engined clio?

    Volvo conversions are good, end. However what the f**k are they doing with that ICE, that's a f**king joke!

    uniroyal rainsports - any good

    Rallye have a better wear rate than the Rainsport simply due to a harder compound. They're nothing like as good as PE2 for wear in my experience, but they're a lot better tyre in the wet than PE2 (which frankly I think are shite for aquaplaning), horses for courses.

    uniroyal rainsports - any good

    Good tyre wet or dry really, only problem is they wear fairly quickly and they're noisyish. Might be better looking at the Rallye line they do.

    picked up my new 182 today!!

    Sportlines - Improve your handling.

    95 Ron fuel in 172 cup

    On a 172/182FF I'd use 95RON happily, but as the 172Cup is a supercar I'd use 104RON race fuel only! On a serious note, it will make no difference at all.

    Recommend me a wet tyre? Must be asymmetric and not directional...

    Easy...Uniroyal Rainsport it's a true wet tyre.

    Inferno - Detail Done.

    Cheers folks, kinda glad I took some time to do it due to the impending weather. For those who understood my sarcasm, I didn't actually use Evian water...it was Volvic ;) Anyway, anybody in the midlands who wants theirs detailing by all means PM me and I'll pop around. Just a shame I didn't...

    Cheap!!!! whos is this

    I disagree, quick drive of the car and a 5 minute inspection (whip wheel off) would uncover any real problems. Apart from the tracking which is probably worth doing on any car over 2-3 years old I reckon anything else would be apparent. Long as the rod ends are fine and there's no hub damage...

    Inferno - Detail Done.

    Well gave the Bean a bit of TLC over the last day or so and took a few crappy photos on my K810 so neither the colour or detail is very good but best I could do. Anyway processes: -Jetwashed. -Cleaned using Evian mineral water & Megs Nxt using the 8 bucket technique. -Dried using Megs water...

    Washing a car at -1

    I washed, clayed, udm'd mine yesterday and by the time I'd finished it was 4:30pm and my roof had frozen over. Got to go back out today and put some EGP on it, otherwise the whole thing was fking pointless. Although claying it was soooo good, spotless now :)
