Bearing spacer and check the pads arent binding. Does the caliper slide freely without the pads in situe?

Not in the front obviously, but you could easily dig the wire into the barrel. Its pretty easily done on the old crap designed brushes. That posibilty doesnt even exist with a Wheel Woolie. Who doesnt like spending money? Like many of us when it comes to our cars, just try and buy the best I...

The older Megs brushes were wire centred and had a small silicone cap on the top. Often you would pull the brush back from the barrel of the wheel, the disc would pull the cap off and before you've realised it, you have stabbed the sharp wire end into your alloy. Even on a cheap set of wheels...

You and i have very different ideas about scrtches my friend. :sneaky:

Just realised Cheaper than a refurb when you scratch it with a £5 wire centred brush. The set of 3 cost me £50 when i got them and i thought it was a bit strong. However i can honestly say they have ben worth every penny and would buy them again in a heartbeat. Mr Porsche would bum me for the...

Ive got proper seat envy!! Oh hang on :D Absolutely love these mate, and i know you will too. They will complete an already stunning package. Always happy to help dude. :)

Yes that’s right. 👍🏼

@MLB apologies sir. I should have clarified, compete in durability & hydrophobic properties. The most durable wax I’ve used was back when I was using waxes and that was Coli 915. It always looked superb but even that couldn’t get close to something as basic as Sonax BSD for beading/durability...

Not used a conventional wax in years. Since moving over to ceramic based sealants, I don’t think waxes can really compete. Not saying they don’t look lovely because some really do. But I’m more than happy with the finish and protection offered by a sealant and it takes a fraction of the time to...

They won’t fit a damper with a spring perch like the OEM struts. They’re designed for 2.25” coilovers.

Also not surprised. It was a lovely car and you did a great job on those last few items to make it 100%. Now then... about this inferno 😁

Wheel Woolies medium & small. Far and away the best brushes I’ve ever used. Mine get used twice a week every week and still as good as new 2 years on. Composite handles so won’t scratch your rims either. https://www.slimsdetailing.co.uk/wheel-woolies-red-black-b-kit.html...

I’ve not hidden that I’m no fan of petrol blue, but that does look superb in the sun. Well done. 😎👌🏼

Great pics of a superb looking car 🙂

The one I recently drove was lovely with some nice bits including a 250 map, Nitrons, Larini exhaust etc. Went well and sounded superb. The exhaust alone was worth it. But I still find the steering too light, the balance difficult to really commit to, and the build quality tough to swallow at...

But you will have longer enjoyment of the car so treat it as buying more time with it. I guess it’s 6 of one and half a dozen of the other. I love Lotus cars, always have done. But having recently driven another supercharged S2, I still wouldn’t part with my Clio for one at £25k. But you gotta...

Arguably you can command more for it having had the belts freshly done though.

Torque looks lovely and smooth. 👌🏼

Alex... honest??? 😅😅 If you look up the word “Frank” in the dictionary, you find it says “See - Alex White” 🤣

Pleased with the quality? Could be used as a basis for a new system for me. I still have the OEM cat at the mo.

Is that the PMS sports cat Stef?

Stunning. There’s some clever folk out there. 🙂👌🏼

I sold my 182 once... never again.

I remember when literally every 22B on the planet was £25k 😂 Nothing special to drive either. £300k... bargain, put me down for 2 😁

Yep. But more impressive ones in an engine cell. Some of which were: A V8 TD throw 2 rods and carry on running on the other 6. Most impressive gasoline failure was an I4 which let go at full rpm and ended up with 14 separate puncture holes in the block. Another favourite was an I3 which failed...

My cells don’t as theyre ambient and I do mostly emissions, soot load and oil dilution. We have 3 full climatic wind tunnels that do similar to what you’re asking, but I couldn’t run one of those. Would bore me even more than what I do. They’re one vehicle, one test. I’m running 8 vehicles all...

Lovely as always Ash. 🙂

The dyno is set with road load data for the specific vehicle and the robots will then drive the vehicle according to whatever drive cycle we wish. The headwind fan matches the road speed and the coast down times and loads are set to match. Means we can simulate 1000s of km through city cycles or...

Looks a bit of a snotter to be honest. Any other colour and this wouldn’t even be a discussion. I know loads get a boner over petrol blue, but I must be the only one who doesn’t see the attraction. Each to their own I guess. 🤷🏽‍♂️🙂

When mine went a few years back I bought a replacement actuator motor from ebay and it’s been perfect ever since.
