Parents have just bought an old Rover and after a wash the rear quarter is massily dulled its matt wheras the rest of the car is quite bright metalic. Assuming its not a respray (possible as the paintworks not that good) whats the best way of getting it shinny again.
Also how do I do the...
33mpg and driving like a nutter? You and me have different views on nutter I'd get 33mpg when careful.
Yozzasport are about your best bet for cheap brake packages new disk lines and Ds2500's are £200 I think the pads alone are £85 or so which is cheap.
I've no idea on geography unfortunatly...
Depends how many laps one lap is £11 I think
The more you buy the cheaper it is
7 laps is something like £70.
Best go with other like minded people though its a bit dull at night and the track close at about 7pm and German TV is useless.
I'm trying to arnage a trip in a month or so I'll...
Stock on the back are fine if you need to chnage the rears then I'd possible be tempted to get DS2500s but stock ones are fine and cheap
DS2500's pads for the front are great.
182 exhaust doesn't fit as 182 have no rear tyre well the Exhaust sits ther you can make it fit if you have the 172...
Any good garage can do it in a few hours the easist way is to lower the subframe but you need a lift to do that.
To make it fit a 172 you'll need a cat to match up (assuming there not one included with it).
£60 on Norfolkline from Dover to Dunquerque (takes 2 hours boring as heck but cheap)
Its 250 or 300 miles from Dunquerque to the ring takes about 4 hours depends how fast you go. If you get your foot down I think my record is 3.5 hours but that was 100mph+ for most of the drive.
The only warently I'd ever both with is the Renault one details here its not cheap but its the best one.

Probably not, I've been round there in my diesel enough but I'm not that slow.
You can buy the stickers from the garage and the shop and the shop by the motor museum.
You want a wheel with a 4 8 100PCD and a 60.1mm minimum center bore size.
Ebays probably a good bet for second hand alloys.
Standard wheel nuts are fine so long as the alloys don't have a wiered shape and so stick out a long way.
You can do it yourself if yu have a level garage to work on.
Most back street garags can set them up you need to know what you want it set up with though ie how much camber toe in etc you want to run.
I'd never stick disks on my car with vent holes like that one them. I've seen enough of them crack due to excess heat.
Stock disk and pads are fine for most people. Harder pads are all you need forget these disks.
I;d look for a very late 172 or a 182 for that sort of money. They should be a load of sale at that price and under.
Forget the GToi though not very good the last generation one.
I'd look at the new GTi its a superb car but obviously a lot more money the 172/182's are great cars for there money depends what you want the golf will have the refinement the Audi had though more so than the cheaper Clio.
There no fix for the light on the 182 's as far as i know at the moemnt aprat from unplugginh the light from the dashboard.
Might as well use the sensor as a bolt and just not connect it up.
Peperami - Your light will come on given time there no fix.
