    Nilfisk snowfoam lance

    I have that one and it's miles better than the one that came with the machine. Don't know how it compares to other makes though.

    What's your favourite car related YouTube channel?

    Well I caught up by binge watching Project Binky and enjoyed it all, now I've seen this (from 57.35) and found they've ruined it... A MK1 grill on a MK3 what were they thinking????

    What's your favourite car related YouTube channel?

    How have I never seen Project Binky before? I'm a long term Mini fan having owned four of them, two being 1275GTs and then having this come up on my feed recently Which made me think I need a Mini in my life again and now seeing the Binky thing above and also loving the Police Squad...

    Automotive Stockholm Syndrome - MrsGherkin’s Clio 1.4 16v

    Love Mk2 Clios, both my kids had them to learn in. That looks very clean apart as you say from the lights, I never discovered a way to keep them clear for more than a year or so and always polished them up before the MOT.

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    Anyone use Gtechniq W6 on wheels? A mate of mine reckons it's pretty good, I've only ever used C4 Trim restorer by them and that is very good so I wondered.

    How distracting are touchscreens in cars

    It does make you wonder at what age cars will start to be binned because the infotainment system has died if for example you can't change the heat settings without it.

    How distracting are touchscreens in cars

    I think they look great and have been looking at BEVs in a hot hatch sort of format, but nothing has the range I need or anything close. Back on topic, I saw this article about safety of touchscreens https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/industry-news/analysis-car-makers-face-screen-test-judge-safety

    How distracting are touchscreens in cars

    As above I've read that screens are much cheaper than proper controls. Even if the touch element is reduced, many now seem to me very distracting just because they are there, the new Honda E for a start... I've also read somewhere that NCAP are going to start rating touchscreens for safety...

    Silvervision

    I had actual Silvervisions but got rid as they were really dim. Recently got some Halfords ones and surprisingly they are really good! I only changed from standard as the orange colour was flaking off and I had to fish it out of the lens with double sided tape wrapped around a wire

    Anyone else Like TR Hamza? He has mostly VAG cars which I don't have a particular interest in, but I find him quite good to watch for some reason I can't put my finger on...

    MarkCup's BMW M140i

    Just watched the latest instalment and have a question @MarkCup, why do you use left foot braking in a RWD car. I understand that with front wheel drive cars you can get the back out by doing it, but am ignorant about RWD.

    Locking wheel nuts

    I wouldn't bother with them as they always end up being a pain, nowadays when I get a car with them on then I bin them straight away.

    Rear washer switch sends water out the front

    Have a look at this link... The pump does both front and rear screens and the piston onside gets soggy so it won't move. You cut a bit off and it works as in the YT vid. I did it on my daughter's Clio and on my Citroen, not too hard

    Show us your decade of motoring

    Probably no one will be interested, but here goes anyway... 2005-2012 V70 T5 After the kids were grown up and I bought them both a Clio to learn in I couldn't decide what to get... Bought a C4 VTS as a stop gap... Written off the same year... I really liked it so got another one, this time...

    Write Off or Not??

    My daughter's 2002 Clio 1.2 had very similar damage just over two week ago, after someone pulled in front of her & she didn't quite stop in time. They admitted fault and we said to just give us £50 to cover some rattle cans. The other party didn't want this and put it through insurance, they...

    Head Unit / CD Player that doesnt have annoying 2 seconds gaps between tracks?

    Isn't the gap between tracks decided when the CD is burnt? I think some sofware will let you choose the length of gap (MediaMonkey?) and some will not, can't remember if itunes or Mediaplayer do or not. Edit; itunes
