Rover storm grey is what i used to refurb a spare , stone grey is a near match also but not none are a 100% perfect match . I think it was fubar who said Peugeot cossack grey is a good match .
A pic of the alloy i refurbed in this thread , using storm grey ...
The turtle wax " wax it wet " won't affect the p21's or srp and egp mate . I used to use it on my iceberg 172 and looks wise it always comes up good . Give it a try , i'll bet your surprised :) Don't be put off by the price , its alot cheaper than the Duragloss Aquawax and does exactly the same...
Collinite 845 and 476 are both very durable and very easy to apply / remove . My choice is still the xxx hardcore past wax . If you wax at least once a month with any wax durablity shouldn't be an issue tbh . I tend to use a different wax each time and build up the layers . I like the Pinnacle...
You can't get chrome paint , well not paint that is available to the general public anyway . Its more of a silver colour , plastikote make one but when you apply the sealer it goes grey . You might see adverts saying its " chrome " but you'll never get the finish of true chrome plating .
I haven't done my badges yet , keep planning to but never get round to it . From what i've read on here , you need a steady hand if your painting the 2.0 16v a different colour . Nah i wont be goin to fcs .
Fubar used Peugeot cossack grey .

We used to use jewellers rouge at work for fine scratches . If they are too deep though you'll end up deforming the glass .

I had a 306 S16 , and tbh i think it was a much nicer car to drive than my 182 . As said better seating position , steering wheel position and handled better than the 182 imo . It was only slightly slower , 155bhp for a car that would be 13 years old now is pretty good i reckon .

Wrong . You can remap your ecu .Pmurray on here comes highly recommended .He owns Rstuning . If you do a search you'll see alot of people rate him highly .

Nothing wrong with motorpoint imo . Smooth sale where i was concerned . The only thing is Alan i'd be surprised if you get a good deal on your 182 and yours dads meg . Privates always the best way to sell as your probably aware of already , its just a bit of a ball ache waiting for someome to...
The buffalo leather care products are ideal for leather suites as well as car seats . A tip i got for our leather suite from the guys who delivered it was to use baby wipes .
I did mine about 12 months ago .I sanded them down with some 1500 grit wet n dry . Plastic primer , sanded that smooth , 3 coats of colour and about 3 coats of lacquer applied quite thick .
Low brake fluid . Its a common problem . Check your pads for wear , they might need replacing or just top up the brake fluid if the pads still have plenty of life left in them .
You'll have to remove the engine cover ( if you have one ) to gain access to the brake fluid reservoir . Take care...
