Snatch their hand off mate if they are gonna give you £5500 , as said take out the mods and sell them separately ,then you could be looking nearer 6 grand in your hand :)

^^ Yep, almost twice the boiling point of water , just under 200 degrees C .

^^^^ Use wire wool mate , then polish with autosol or autoglym metal polish .

Yeah you can get 2000 and 2500 grit but tbh 2500 is probably a little too fine . http://www.axminster.co.uk/product-Hermes-WS-Flex-(Wet-and-Dry)-19877.htm What are you sanding down ?

Looks like the plastics melted slightly . Normal hss drill bit is all that should be required . It doesn't look that bad tbh , just trim round the hole with a craft knife to tidy it up .

Forget the t-cut , get some megs scratch x . Best thing to do if you've got dried on bugs is to rehydrate them first , soak them in a warm mixture of shampoo and water , this will soften them up , then a good lambswool wash mitt , or if if you have a pressure washer use this after you've soaked...

Totally agree , silvers not a bad colour , just after i bought mine 4.5 years ago it seemed like everybody was starting to buy a silver car , lol . It was one of the reasons i bought an arctic blue 182 cos they're not as common round here . Tbh , i think all the colours in the rs range look...

You should always use coolant , cos it does exactly what its name says , it doesn't get as hot as water plus it contains rust inhibitors.

I'd say its more to do with the amount of other silver cars on the road that they blend in more . Just stop and look how many other cars are silver , common as fcuk now .When i bought my first RS i chose silver with a little help from my mates advice , then it seemed that world and his dog was...

^^^^ I'm guessin when the guy told me the cars he viewed looked like they had been thrashed , it must have been more to do with appearance , if it looks like its been looked after then chances are its been cared for mechanically as well .

Yeah , whats it called ? Prices , sizes etc .... ? Is it a liquid , cream ... ?

Tbh , your market is slightly more limited due to all the mods .Younger people wanting the sport model are being out priced with silly insurance , with your mods the insurance would be less attainable to alot of people . If you could put it back to standard or as near as possible , sell the...

Get some pics up Dave when its waxed !

^^^^

Try a K+N Apollo if you love the sound , floor and roar ;) One on ebay at the moment . Plus you can always colour code it if its not the right colour . http://www.knfilters.com/universal/apollo.htm...

Never tried the eagles , i've had both the toyo t1-'s and t1-r's and they are absolute rubbish in the wet .

^^^^ Pics please Tim :)

For what model car are you looking for ? You could try one of these specialist breakers . http://renault-spare-parts.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=31_42&sort=20a&page=5 http://www.freewebs.com/usedcarparts/ http://www.cliospares.co.uk/

Nice one . Glad " you " got it sorted ;)

How easy / hard is it to remove the acoustic valve , is it easy to put back if needed ? Do you notice any difference when you hit 5k revs , do you still get the kick ??

She's forgotten to mention it gets cleaned everyday ,pmsl ;)

That peg from a dolls house are what , lol ?

Yep , got the Talex , £60 well spent imo :) If you go on Aldis website you can register and they send you all the latest offers by e mail .

Local motor accessory shops usually sell them probably cost twice as much as the individual pads but you get a big roll of it so you've plenty left for future use

Let him read this post then . Yep definitely your boyfriends lack of skill ;)

Same here for me . I sold my import 172 similar age , mileage etc for the same as a UK model . Nothing wrong with imports , your insurance isn't affected , obviously you need an alarm and if your the second owner i would imagine it already has one as i think you'll find it pretty hard to get...

Like loony says wet sand with 1500 grit wet n dry . Depending how thick you have applied the lacquer will depend whether you would need to relacquer it , but i would say just scratch x it afterwards and will come up smooth and shiny . As Luke says , sounds like you've applied it too thick ...

^^^^ Its not a coating a such . The heat reflective coating is bonded to the glass when its still warm so its part of the glass as opposed to a coating . It won't wash or rub off .

^^^^ You can buy the sticky number plate pads on a roll , which aren't much more than buying the individual pads .
