    Headlight restoration

    @Hawk182 used a rotory polisher and some compound that I can't remember the name of to do his headlights without sanding, they came out really well. Tom, what was the compound?

    Has anyone ever seen a FWD Clio v6 swap?

    I'd love to see what the extra weight and torque does to the handling. I bet it'd be hilarious. "Come on! Turn in! Lift off just a bi- Fuuuuck, opposite lock, opposite lock!!!"

    Number plates - drilled or stuck?

    Top tip! If using Velcro coins, put the soft Velcro on the car and the harsh hooky bit on the number plate Otherwise you'll have it eating your microfibres and wash mitts when you clean it

    How you get rid of a camera van ?

    Regarding the smart motorways, I genuinely don't see why there's not just a big ass sign saying 'keep left unless overtaking' If they really wanted to make smart motorways, they'd have a system to monitor the lanes*, see which dick head is causing the congestion, put a big red X over their lane...

    How you get rid of a camera van ?

    To argue against them not being sneaky, on my old commute going through a built up area where people used to do 40, there used to be a copper who would park his car way down a side street at the top of a hill and literally jump out from around a corner when he saw a car come. c**t. Another one...

    How you get rid of a camera van ?

    That was a petty comment to be honest. There's nothing stopping regular Joe from pointing a camera at someone. I was just looking for any excuse to bash camera vans because I genuinely despise them, so I went with "impersonating a police officer".

    How you get rid of a camera van ?

    Oh no, I understand that speed limits apply everywhere, I should've elaborated on how it's the placement of the cameras is what I don't agree on. Putting them in daft places to catch people out purely to catch a lot of people and generate the most fines. The places that could do with cameras...

    Things you shouldn't do in a Clio...

    That's not where I thought you were going with that. It reminded me of @dann2707 's hippocrocopig story lol

    How you get rid of a camera van ?

    The other day when I was in Wales, I came off a roundabout, going downhill on a ruralish road with a slight bend in it... So easy to let your speed get away from you if you're not diligent. It was getting dark and the road was very quiet. Hey ho, mobile piggy bank at the bottom of the hill...

    You are Scottish though. If I'm ever up there I dare not fondle the speed limit for fear of setting off one of the cameras Cameras are to Scotland what sheep are to wales. It's mental

    Have you been to Scotland? If not, you'll have a heart attack. I've never seen so many unnecessary cameras. They have more cameras than cars I'm sure

    How you get rid of a camera van ?

    Yup. People around here love merging onto motorways at 50/60, some c***s even do it at 40 Ffs! Then they'll crack on being a hinderance for the next few miles until they get beeped or flashed out of the way. But these c***s don't get any fines or bollockings for being a massive...

    How you get rid of a camera van ?

    Did lol at the first one. North wales camera vans are proper c***s. And as much as I hate the bellends who make these 'I'm clever for recording the police' videos, I hate the mobile cameras more so, top work lads. I can't believe they're not police officers too! That should not be allowed...

    Ate supergold. I bled them before I found the rear calipers were stuck though so I think adjusting them had added some spongeyness

    R27 #177

    Yup, took it for a drive last night and it didn't blow up, so fingers crossed. The brakes still feel a bit spongey and the handbrake needs adjusting but that's easily sorted.

    DIY service book.

    I had my vehicle folder today and didn't realise how many receipts I've collected for it! I'm going to need to make a new folder for all the paperwork, I had it serviced by an Independant garage the first few years of ownership before I got into doing it myself. Now I keep receipts and update...

    Every cloud and all that. I've been convinced that solid mounts are a good idea. But that'll be a job for next year

    The thing is it didn't even go pop on a hot lap. I was pootling around for a lap waiting for the m3 to catch up then it went a few corners later after the m3 went in. Ah well lol

    My Senna impression needs work it seems Since the engine wouldn't start I had no steering or brakes, as I found out, the ignition doesn't stay on indefinitely like on cars with keys. I got it around Druids ok but when it me to lodge, the truck went right, I went straight, he stopped, I ran...

    Not much of an update but after a breakdown at oulton on the 26th of last month, the car has been in a sorry state. The car lost all power coming over hill top throwing up 'injection fault' An accident when getting towed off the track saw me facing the wrong way at lodge with the tow rope...

    Cheers, I took my old brackets to work, beat the s**t out of them to get the old lines out, opened the holder bits a bit and cable tied my new lines into them. Job jobbed lol ... For if anyone is curious to how to fit them lol

    @Pacman. How did you get the original brake lines out of their bracket, and the new lines into the bracket? Mine are tight as f**k!

    Looks clean but it has zero options bar speedlines. Very odd.
