    IT'S SOLD!....i'm actually pretty gutted. :(

    Super quick sale chap. A nice Black Gold will ease the pain. I still miss my 309 and 205 GTis - even though I sold the 309 in 2000.

    black gold 182 clios

    Tell me about battery went flat the other day ;) Machine polished last year with Poorboys SSR polishes, on top of that Autoglym Super Resin Polish, Jeffs Acylic Jetts Sealant (Like the AG Extra Gloss but lots more user freindly) topped of with a good pure Carnuba Wax.

    megs 3 stage polish/wax

    Megs stage 3 wax is not very durable I would doubt you will get more than 3-4 weeks protection at this time of year. Worth getting a durable sealant like Autoglym Extra Gloss which should get you a couple of months if you get a couple of coats on. Failing that top up with wax every few weeks...

    any tips on polishing car

    Yes for the Super Resin - Panel at a time, work it the polish on the panel and remove. There is no need or benifits to leaving it on moving panel to panel and do the rest of the car and remove at once. In fact doing that makes removal harder. The Extra Gloss Sealant needs to be applied to the...

    any tips on polishing car

    EGP should last a few months if you build a few layers up. Should be no need to polish a car every few weeks, even I only polish mine a few times a year!

    any tips on polishing car

    Panel at a time for polishing, no real need to let polishes cure and in some case you should not, straight on and off. Sealants and waxes you can do the whole car if you so desire.

    Rolling Road Results For RS Clios

    Re: RR results for 1*2s Intresting you say that as I had my bog standard 182 run there a few weeks ago and it made over book at 185 bhp A few people commented that it over reads but other cars where bang on the book figures. The thing that is odd is how low the @ the wheels figures are.

    Adobe Photoshop Lightroom

    I think the Adobe stance was a programme to compete with Apperture just for Photographers without the other bits the PS now has in it that they may not use. As above I can do what I need in CS2 so never bothered to download it either.

    Think the R3 is maybe one of those factory type mock up cars, rather than finsihed/real deal. I forgot look look inside stupidly!

    Stuck on bits and white wheels are now factory options on the 197. R3 is the new Rally car from what I understand

    Side by side the 197 and the Cup car the above was so clear Chris, height wise the race car looked spot on, could not get a side by side shot though.

    The spoiler looked ok imo, except it was fake carbon looks rather than colour coded as on the race car. The other skirt and splitter add ones looked shite.

    best glass cleaner to use?

    Good stuff, can't go wrong with that or the AG Glass Polish both work just as well.

    Some little intelligent person has keyed my car...

    Re: Some little B****** has key'd my car... :( A polish alone unfortunatley will not do anything for a deep scratch. Touch up paint, a wet sand and machine polish may sort it.
