bit cheeky but saved over 2 grand on "R3 NNO"
Now that summers almost upon us Im gonna polish the motor again. I usually use autoglym but it leaves circles on the body work now matter how hard you polish it!
Anyone got any recomendations for good polish that wont leave the dreaded swirl marks?
Lets face it the 182 is a 172 with some suspension and exhaust tweeks, they arent going to redevelop a car thats been phased out this year

That said if your...
