Wow.

I had really good results with regular car polish. Auto glum srp etc. cleans it up lovely and offers a pretty decent level of water repelling.

Jealously level 2000! Great work mate.

I’m in your camp here. A sports cat that doesn’t do any actual catting is just a pipe, no?? If they’re selling sports cats that can’t pass emissions tests then it needs to state that clearly on the advert. ‘Not for road use’ seems a little bit weak as a description imo.

I don’t like Kangvic. What about Hongoo? 😂

Very shallow (deep?) offset though so you may want to look in to some spacers too.

I haven’t personally but I’ve seen plenty of them on track cars. there’s a couple on the 182 racing series Facebook page with them too.

Are you lost? You seem to have wandered away from the ‘For sale’ section of the forum?

Glad it’s sorted mate. Get some pics up in the media section if it’s a bit of a project! The fuel remaining thing - I have a similar issue on mine but just put it down to not being driven much and it never has a chance to calculate the MPG to work out how much is left. (It’s a track car with a...

Welcome to the Club Nev! my gut reaction is the UCH under the glovebox. Usually if you unplug it and plug it back in (vigorously, 5 or 6 times) and the fault goes away for a few days, it’s a sure sign that it’s starting to fail. It used to be an expensive fix but plenty of people offer a repair...

When doing the brakes, make sure you fit some braided lines and some decent fluid too. The last 197 I took on track had the same setup as you’re planning and the brakes were phenomenal. a proper geometry setup will transform the car also. welcome to the club. 👍

Same. My thermostat only goes down to 13 before it’s off completely - which I don’t want to do in case anything freezes. But the bloody thing was going all night. Probably cost me a f**king weeks wages.

I spent 2 hours just doing the engine bay today on this 20 year old 1.9 diesel Kangoo. It was absolutely howling but like a prick I didn’t take any before pics. 🤦‍♂️ looking spanking now though!

That’s cool!

I fitted some Focal speakers to a Ford yesterday. Straight forward plug and play and the fit and finish was superb. Sound awesome too. I’d imagine there are plenty of kits for the Mk4 Golf, the most modified car in the world surely?? 😂 the little boxes are crossovers, so split the signal from...

I’ve stopped using it on my own cars. It dulls the plastics really bad. but for work cars, I always use Autoglym. Seems to be the best combo of effective cleaning but won’t stain if you leave it on too long.

That’s a silly amount of car for the money. But like Ad says, I just couldn’t enjoy it fully, always wishing I’d got a coupe.

The passenger door was questionable, so I re-did that, but on the whole I was really pleased with it. I’ve washed it now with some really hot water and fairy liquid to strip all the fillers and polish off it to hopefully see the ‘true’ condition of the paint. I’ll see what greets me when I get...

We had a Focus RS in work with one on back in about 2019. I’ve never driven a standard Focus RS so I’ve nothing to compare it to. But it went well, passed emissions on the MOT ok and the guy that bought the car still has it today.

So… I haven’t picked up a machine polisher properly for about 5 years. We had a 2018 Ford Fiesta come in part exchange at work and the chap had it ‘cleaned’ every week at the local hand car wash… needless to say, I had my work cut out. I bought a DA polisher from @imprezaworks but as it...

He’s a very very talented man. And he has biblical taste in cars.

This guy is (very loosely) a mate of a mate. Been to a few track days with him and can confirm he’s a lunatic that builds mental cars AND he can race AND he can drift. This is his latest creation. (he’s on Facebook - Bishops bespoke builds if you want to see what he does)

I still can’t believe you of all people have bought a black car as a daily. 😂

That’s lovely! Got any interior pics?

Obviously, it may not cure it - it could be a break in the loom for example - But replacing the sensor is the cheapest and easiest place to start.

303 Aerospace protectant. Wicked stuff.

To be fair I’ve sold a few through CS this year. Off the top of my head; Merc E320, X5, E500, Golf GT, aygo. I’m sure there’s a couple more too.

95% of what’s there was already there when I moved in. Tbh my Autosmart rep is so good and efficient (call him and he’s there within the hour) I may well keep going because I haven’t found anything s**t. i need to buy a rupes now though. I’ve not got the time to be using a rotary and tbh the...

I think - genuinely - it’s the only set of wheels I’ve ever fitted to a car and I stood back and thought “f**k me dan, those are the ones!” I’m not normally a fan of changing wheels but they suit it so well.
