I don't think they have a hurricane washer at KK's dude lol. Only so much can do without running water etc. ;)

Yeah I have all the glass to clean, and darken all the plastic inserts. Then ofcourse, tire shine.

You just had yours resprayed like! What wheels you on? Going to get there at 11:15 or so and clean the car at KK's.

You'll be there Hutchie in the Naughty? That makes 3!

Cheers, will hopefully look good tomorrow then :)

Cheers dude! Might wack WD40 on in the morning while I clean the rest of the glass off. Then grab some of that in the week when I can. Ok for fog inserts, bumper blips, rear bumper insert, grille etc?

I sacked JD's ph1 off when I got my keys, stuck the ph2 on for the new era! :approve:

Loud music, sorted. Felt like 10 minutes driving to preston and back the other week.

Spray = all over the bumper eh? Micro fibre cloth do? Picked up aload of those cheap small ones from Asda for the glass/wheels etc.

I've had that! Car was making a flapping noise when setting off at low revs etc. 30 miles later with a mechanic stood infront of the car, it wouldn't do it! 3 minutes later and the carbon cannister lid securely on, it wasn't flapping!

Should I use a butter knife with that peanut butter? I'm terrible at buttering bread so the car is going to be a right pain. Got a product for a restorer Richy? Some autoglym stuff or something?

Nothing 600 or lower if your looking to just remove the laquer dude. It's a pain not to damage the text texture making them unsmooth when trying to remove a layer.

Sounds like good plans, sorta what Id do given a PH1. :)

Yea when they're wet they look dark and not shiney like gloss but doesn't look faded dude.

Had a search around for these, but just want to talk about them with someone in the know really. Alcantara inserts, people have mentioned brushes? Mainly need to remove cat hair and little bits, something to refresh it up alittle would be reet. Any words of advice? Been recommended just...

Silver standard wheels? Seen one with the standard Monaco and T600 PHY in the village before.

This could go on to be a favourite, jjust few bits to fiddle with.

The V6 definately deserves it, not that you ever do a bad job at justifying it!

Washed mine in the dark, hopefully I didn't miss any.

I'd love a 172 like that!

Aye aye, Off to clean the glass now then the paint in the morning before the North West meet. Cup splitter isn't on yet though :dapprove: I have no way of getting it on aswell. The fog inserts/grille needs spraying aswell but I might just look into something to clean/darken them with.

Tis a nice car Rob, 1.2's will change it alot.

Notice the 6 seated 172 ;)

Run hard? As in rough sex? ;) I'll see when the end of college is as I'm due to finish around that time, should be done though.

Sorta thinking about tagging along, but unsure only rollin' in the 1.2 :/

True about the niggles. Only one of my friends outside of CS has a car, standard (minus the Rs grille I sold him cheap, and now the 172 wheels) 1.2 dynamique with the GEY reg. No one in college etc drives Rob. If the wings etc was done properly and interior tidy then maybe I would appreciate it...

Insurance would be a b**ch at my age, which is why I won't be getting one lol. But as soon as I can I will. 182 engine in the Naughty, nah tbh dude, alot of money for not alot of car tbh. I could easily get a ph1 172 with the money out of this car, or even a bottom end ph2 but. I just don't...

What if you brake really hard, the bonnet comes up and t***s the car infront you were braking for? ;) Tidy tidy car dude.

I'm after a 172 as quickly as I can tbh dude lol.

Passed my test September the 19th yeah, first car. Coilies are great, Adam and Riad know about them in roundabouts lol. Personally think it's a right mess but never mind.
