Fairy power spray for me , oh and its not an acid ;) or Blue Rim and Wheel Cleaner . http://www.chemicalguysuk.com/product_p/bluerim.htm

No problem mate . She did say you looked a bit dodgy , but almost attractive in a strange kind of way ;)

Ok , didn't know it was a mark 1 i assumed they were all the same on all clios.

The black plastic bit as you call it is part of the repaeater lens . It looks like its plastic welded on . When i changed mine you took " all " of the side repeater off and the replacement repeaters had the bit on the back you call the " black plastic bit " . Don't know what side repeaters...

It was me and the woman you terrorised was my mum , lmao ;) Must have just missed ya by a couple of mins , i just nipped in for an extra tasty chicken , lol .

Ring your insurance company . There is usually a £50 - £60 excess to pay but it won't affect your no claims .

^^^ Not necessarily . I have an enclosed IK and use the original feeds , or some people feed the cold air feed to front grill or foglight .

713 is cherry red ( rouge cerise ). Thats if you have the right paint code ?

Love it in white , looks mint :) . Not keen on the engine cover , each to their own though , nice to see some originallity . Now get the bloody engine bay cleaned lol . Oh and what is carbon fibre " dipped " ??

Like Iain says . Down remove your engine cover and the brake fluid reservoir is hidden down there .

He only wants to remove the airbox . No need to touch the vacuum pipe to the acoustic valve , thats a separate thing altogether .

You need your ignition on , then press the button for 5 seconds to activate/deactivate .

Its just 2 bolts one at the front and one at the back . Then disconnect both air feeds .

Not keen on the serious performance one . Its too thin when loaded with water . I use use either a meguiars mitt or the one from carwaxnwax.com . Both are much thicker and feel better quality . http://www.chemicalguysuk.com/product_p/lambwas.htm

Fairy power spray . Or Blue Rim and Wheel Cleaner .Nothing will completely remove all traces of brake dust if you drive your car daily .If its mainly garaged and doesn't see much action get a fairy from the bottm of your garden to blow it away lol . Srp , egp and wax your wheels . This will help...

Then your not using it right then ;)

Use the german applicator all over the car with the SRP not just any scratched areas . I use the microfibre applicators for waxes and imo they don't absorb anymore product than the yellow foam pads , after all they are foam and foam by nature absorbs things . Once the microfibre applicators have...

I use these . Much better than the little yellow foam pads as they actually give some bite when you polish . http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/pb68polish.html

Check for dents down the side of the bodywork . Also on the bonnet where they sometimes get pushed down to lock it and dent very easily .Check the whole exhaust system , they rust and drop to bits after only a couple of years . Also condition of the brake discs and pads .Any lights on the dash .

Lose the car , keep the badges ;)

Morrisons car wash in the first pic , no Morrisons car wash in the second pic . Do i win a prize ??

I looked at the cossack grey the other day . It is very very close but there are quite a few that are " close " lol . None are 100% perfect , but if you were doing all 4 wheels it wouldn't matter , if they were used just as a touch up you'd probably see the difference whatever paint you use ...

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 ...

Its 205-110 , ixell paint . If your after a touch up pen or aerosol your out of luck . They don't make one .

I'd use white spirit as gloss paint is oil based and takes a fair while to completely go off .

Black gold dash inserts . Black gold badges ( 2.0 16v i assume you mean ) with the lettering left silver .

Had a 172 , loved it . Got the 182 cos it was newer and for the looks , twin exhaust and anthracite alloys :)

Autoglym interior shampoo should sort it . Failing the Meguiars all purpose cleaner should shift it .

The k+n apollos are crap . I had one on my 182 , it lost power so i flogged it on ebay .

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...
