Why does a comment like that not suprise me coming from you, I will let you off though ;) Don't tell Ali I dont want him getting jealous!

The above was my arguement after the budget! New cars get shafted due the wider range of emmisions brackets. But yeah on old 5 litre Rangey will cost less to tax!

Very nice, looking good.

Well they are a rather dark colour, hope you put some tyre dressing on for her :rasp:

LOL - if you get any complaints about your driving just say it was your mum!

I think I may buy a few and ebay them if things get tight!

LOL - Did you get the Audi in exchange to play with?

Looking good, nice pics.

You think it would at least hit stations close to tracks first. Must be essential on the North Circular! lol How long before Shell respond with there offering?

Good excuse to go out and have some fun. Stay safe though kids!

In this months Evo for the Meggy fans.

Saved me nothing on a previous car, all depends on the insurers. But chances are if you have at least Cat 1 on there they wont take any more off.

I never wear them, just hold them as you would a sponge.

Looked like a nice sunset over Malvern way tonight though mate.

Stick to hand washing!

I clay using a soap and water mix so never bother drying first, then save the detail spray for future use.

Yeah thats the one, a few have said Rover Stone Grey is close enough for small touch ups.

Wash - Megs Gold Class Clay - Meguiars Quick Clay Kit Polish - Autoglym Super Resin Polish Sealant - Autoglym Extra Gloss Protection Lamswool wash mitt and some microfiber cloths and a couple of hand foam pads. All from a big halfords for about 50 quid.

Good price. I would gets the Poorboys range of SSR Swirl Removers and a couple of sets of polishings pads, I would get 2 light cut, 2 polishing and 2 finishing pads to get you going. Alex will see you ok. www.seriousperformance.co.uk

Use the long straight lead rather than the curly one this helps. Also unstick the pad on the bracket and stick it on moved further back so the RA2 to sit more snuggly in the bracket. The Attentional Attenna is a must aswell IMO.

Bugger - hope you get it sorted.

Pc is 2,500 to 6,000 From the above Autopia PC link. As for pads there are 4 - 6 and half inch pads easily available over here so make sure it will take one of them. The other advantage of the PC over such machine is the backing plate can be changed to run different sized pads, lot's if not...

The shape of that will mean it is not very easy to use. If you can get the pads for it it would be an option and that you can control the speed. There is Dewalt that looks a bit like a PC a few guys have been using - but I forget the model number.

If you use an abbrassive polish it will remove the Supergard thats all that will happen!

Needs the wheel arches cleaned though ;)

In the intrests of science try some other stuff to !

Should be fine, I normally just wash mine by hand with Woolite or another hand washing liquid.

The purpose of the shampoo is to provide lubriction so the clay glides freely. Not enough and the clay with smear and stick to the paint. Better safe than sorry the slicker the better.

A decent amount of shampoo is needed. Do skimp on it or you will mark the paint. I pre-wet the panel first with car soap and water via a wash mitt. Then using a pre mixed clay lube in a spray bottle add yet more soap to the panel first. Mix up 3-4 cupfulls of shampoo in a small spray bottle...

Nice one, enjoy the new car. Lightweight colour choice though! ;)
