Guy at our office has one. Commutes in around 60 miles every day - they really will do 65mpg on this sort of motoring. Can easily sort the handling with a set of Eibachs. Good car IMO.

Try it and see? Youll probably feel a difference. Im assuming you have the 1.6 16v engine. We have the same in our Megane, and you can feel the difference.

have you tried pushing the bonnet down Tony? If it didnt fully close last time it might be reluctant to release. (Be carful - its made of French cardboard)

Or just get some leather cleaner from a furniture or hardware shop.

Thats why I asked about the pressure washer - these chemicals make me nervous. No-one from here appears to have tried a steam cleaner, so Ill get one and see what happens.

Anyone tried a steam cleaner?

Thanks K, really cheered me up. I can just about cope with the ones Ive got now - those Super Ts are going to be a nightmare :cry:

Need to see pics really mate.

Nice one, looks like a great day. Rained all day when I did it, and we had a mini rally stage for the Evo complete with watersplash and jump!

Takes me longer to clean the wheels than it does to clean the rest of the car at the moment. Pain.

How good are those electric pressure washers for cleaning wheels? Do they do the full job, or would I still need to use a brush to get the brake dust off?

A lot of this is down to personal opinion/preference, so you might well get a lot of different views. IMO Toyos are great if youre on a budget. If money is no object you might try Goodyear Eagles (for double the price). The Toyos wont last as long, but they do grip very well.

Ordered mine last week in August, delivery to dealer 5th October, told them Ill collect it the following week. Fingers crossed.

Id be a bit dubious tbh mate. If it was that cheap / easy why hasnt he done it himself before putting the car up for sale? It may well cost £60, but I guess if you budget £200 and factor that into the price you offer him youll have covered yourself. Even painting the whole wing wouldnt cost...

I saw Welsh182s car at Pembrey in Racing Blue - it looks fantastic. Im sure lots pf pics will follow.

lol, its plastic!

^^^^^ now that DOES look good :D

Itll crack eventually if you dont, particularly if its left in the sun a lot.

Car wax will often get that sort of mark off.

You can easily get a good Mk1 172 for that sort of money. Engine and gearbox are both strong. No serious weak points, just niggly little things, electrics, exhaust, stuff like that. welcome to Cliosport by the way :) [Edited by telford_mike on 10 September 2004 at 7:47pm]

Hmmm. If I can get the silencer looking good I might remove that plastic grille.

Really? RESULT :D

Even stainless needs a good polish quite frequently though - ok it doesnt rust but it does go dull. Hopefully its not too difficult to get at...

Get some leather cleaner from a furniture shop. usually comes in a kit with a cleaner and a cream feeder.

Magnex is deep & throaty - not toooo loud.

... and while were on the subject, can you get the plastic grilles out so you can get at the exhaust to clean it?

£185 is a bit high - think mine was £170. They do replace the air filter, and the pollen filter.

I did one of these jonathon palmer days last year. Absolutely awesome - youll love it.
