Do you mean Apex?

No.

Best Clio by far! And you've made it even better. You have great taste, those laguna wheels look proper!

We've had to machine polish 30+ cars at work after we switched to Autosmarts own mf's. They certainly don't work great with brand new paintwork that's for sure!

They look at me like I've just sawn my own leg off in front of them when I tell them we don't have a games console in the house. Or TV's in the kids bedrooms. That's another pet hate of mine...

My kids are allowed 30 minutes a week on my iPad/their DS's. If they use that allowance up by Monday night it's tough s**t. Those are the rules! My son brings some of his mates home and they're mongoloids. Utter mongoloids. No clue whatsoever how to entertain themselves. Give my boy a book...

Yeah none of our cars, Porsche mini or BMW, are allowed ANY marks on them when the go up for sale. Considering just at BMW, we sell 120 cars a month, we get a lot done by them! It's cheaper for us to use them than it is for our own bodyshop to refurb them! Lol

They've just dropped off 40 wheels so I'll grab a few pics of their work this afternoon.

What's the deal with track time? We're less than keen to go out with all the usual action day dickheads. But if CS has it's own slot we'll get booked up.

They're superb. They do all of our wheels. From bog standard guff to diamond cut 20's. Price includes tyre removal/refit and balancing and new valves too.

The man is amazing at his job. I wouldn't let anyone else paint my cars!! Sadly though he's packed it all in and now works for us at BMW. We use 'Phoenix alloys' at our place now though. Acid dip, shot blast, powder coat, paint and lacquer. Best in the business IMO!

Yes mate.

We're all getting there for 4am. See you there.

I never understand the reasoning behind choosing a £3 text check or a £20 HPI/Experian check. Especially when forking out thousands of pounds!

Will there be room for a trailer? My mate (who I'm coming with) wants to bring his track car to show off but only if he can park his van/trailer somewhere near.

Can you scan/take a pic of the HPI and upload it? I have to scrutinise them for work so could be able to help.

If the car is in a crash hard enough to crush the fuel rail guard, chances are the driver would be brown bread anyway. They're designed to take big impacts and they're bolted to the engine.

The slam panel is as strong as a coke can mate it does sweet FA! The only thing that matters in a front whack is the front crash bar. Which unless he likes bendy handling cars, will still be there. Fuel rail guard is a fair point though. No idea why people remove them.

Why?

Who the f**k has bid on that?? You couldn't pay me to drive that s**t!

Guys help me out! I've been asked by my boss to do a proper good spoof up of his best mates car. I've got it Saturday morning. The thing is, I have to do it in work and because the valet bays are in the body shop, nothing can have silicon in it. I've just about sorted all my kit but I want...

Me. But by the time I've lined it up in the chuck of have done half a wheel. It's really not difficult.

He's still about, just changed his name.

I've got one of his steering wheels, bloody awesome!

Pretty much mate yeah. £30 and 2 hours on a Saturday will sort the door handles out permanently though and a 'snappy' wheel retrim is about £150 iirc. Be as good as new then.

Silver, 100%.

Yeah they're fucked. Renault made them out of biodegradable stuff it seems. Send them to spray shack if you're not a DIY kind of bloke, cheap and effective way if freshening up the inside IMO.

Wet flat the whole wheel, Painting them gloss black, then wet flat the silver, then autosol the silver. We did a trial wheel and it looks f**king awesome.

FLOL!!!

Wheels are off, in the middle of refurbing them, big BIG pile of parts to fit, get the bonnet and bumper painted then it's back on the road. Then I'll sell it.
