Halfords for the auoglym and meguiars wash mitt . For the waffle weave towel , wax and a microfibre applicator for the wax carwashnwax . I get the majority of my stuff off here . Also try their Extreme Body Wash N Wax shampoo .

Ditch the sponge for a start and get a good lambswool wash mitt . I like the meguiars one best . I use a combination of an aquablade and waffle weave towel to dry the car . Get some autoglym super resin polish and autoglym extra gloss protection . Then a decent wax like the chemical guys 50/50...
If it's only a grands worth of damage then i would say you've got yourself a bargain . Check in the boot under the mat to see if there are any creases . I'll be honest with ya though , if there is only a grands worth of damage i'd be surprised . The rear end of a clio is a bit of a weak spot...
So you've bought a car that you know nothing about thats a cat d write off ? Sounds a bit risky to me . I hope you got it for a good price and have somebody with a good knowledge of how what repairs it will need . I'd concentrate on repairing the car rather than any mods imo .

You'll always lose a bit of fluid when you disconnect the hoses . Put some cling film over the brake fluid reservoir and screw the cap back on tight . Bleed through " without " the engine running .
Like Sam says . Selling private is the only way you'll get anywhere near it's true market value . At the moment the market for 182's is a little bit stagnant as there seems an abundance of them for sale . Thats also another reason why a dealer will offer you well under market value as he knows...
I'd steer clear of the apollo if i was you . It lost power on my 182 . Halfords sell the bmc , its cheaper than the bmc carbon ones but with the same filter inside ...
Lol at the new seat belts . APC for me or autoglym interior shampoo if they aren't too heavily soiled . Use a Meguiars Foaming Sprayer , let it dwell or agigate it with your fingers , wipe it off with a damp microfibre cloth ...
It always amazes me how people are shocked when they are offered 1000's less than they paid for their cars 1 or 2 years down the line . The fact is it's a tin box that costs money to run , repair etc ... Newer models come out which " can " affect the price of older models . If your gonna part ex...
You sure you need an allen key ? On mine iirc its 2 18mm bolts for the whole caliper and you need a 13 and 17mm spanner to separate the caliper and the brake pad mounting brackets . Personally i'd paint them off the car as it's easier .
There are good local garages and bad local garages ;) So if thats there diagnosis , what is their remedy ? Or don't they know ?? I very much doubt it's your brakes .
