Really tidied this one up a lot since you got it, top work

Was a cockfest tonight mate, I doubt even you would have had much to perve on!

^ Went WS1 tonight and had a very dull one, getting back at 2am to see my car pretty much swirl free and glossing a treat under the street got my spirits back up again :D

Well....you saw what start I got off to :o Really enjoyed having a go with it but was tough on the hands...Doing a whole car would be pretty knackering I imagine.

^ Indeed, Russ's rotary game is tight!

I'd be looking to pick up a 172 cup or dynamique interior, they go for pretty cheap! Saves you experiencing what Martin172 describes as the "handbrake up the arse" under hard cornering from the terrible seats the Expression has.

Just a few before shots for comparison. This was as it stood before washing and claying: As you can see, rather dull and hazed, not very reflective at all. It's now more reflective than I ever thought a silver could look. I'd reccomend to a lot of people looking to get into...

I used it while Russ was doing the body work, was piss easy, just work in well with an MF then buff off about 20 mins later. Great stuff, the wheels are beading

Massive thanks for today Russ, top job, even after my attempt to ruin it by splatting polish up the nearside :rasp:! I was really suprised by the crisp, glossy finish Russ achieved on what is a bit of an unrewarding colour. Lime prime via rotary proved to be a bit of a weapon. Also suprised...

Drunken muppet get out :rasp: !

^ Been on the sauce Dan?

Mate of mine suggested that, said he has seen it cause cars go into limp mode quite often. Cheers :) I've already had work done on the throttle body :(

My mates got one for sale atm, not sure if its sold now. 1.2 16v TCE, remapped, exhaust, filter, dump valve....got 129 bhp at FCS. Its blue with graphics on trophy wheels, smart little car

I know whats next ;) What was the mileage on the clio?

Was a crackin lookin car that Stewart, sad time indeed. Onwards and upwards though eh :)?

Tay, was this the stuff you had on the go at FCS? Your car looked stunning!

Kev....fiestadetailer on DW right :)?

Some transformation that! Top work Made good time getting to Omex for 12.30, I could tell that would be the case by the way you left KFC lol :evil:!!

Stunning my friend :)

^ LOL! Sure Doug Ellis had a plate similar to this

C'mon everyone don't hold back tell him what you really think of this motor.... :clown:

Looks great as it is, just maybe get the colour coding done like Ali did

^ It'll just pick up and react on the original primer

I learnt the hard way^^ Had a bit of lacquer peel myself so flatted it all back and went over with panel wipe, then when I went to lacquer back over the paint just picked up over the lines where the lacquer had peeled in the first place. The reason why you're lacquer has peeled in the first...

I see you went with this sound piece of advice in the end ;) Looks good on the V-Maxx's :approve:

^ Cheers Luke, as you say its a bit of a mine field, there are a number of things that could be causing it. As I said it's been on a diagnostic before which highlighted the throttle body, which was replaced but not cured the problem long term. :( I'm wondering whether its one of the sensor's...

LOL love the title, you're right about the 1.2 16v though, can make you look a poor driver with how jumpy it is!

Anyone?

Sac pro race 1.2's I'd be keeping an eye on the car parts for sale section on here for some 172 alloys

Followed you from Weeford island up the a5 to muckley corner and up the Shire Oak Hill. Driving was erratic and had a muppet of a passenger who kept sticking his head out the window, exhaust sounded nice though.
