    Back to black alternatives

    I use Autoglym Bumper care gel on Textured plastics, and Vinyl and Rubber on smooth stuff. They do a back to black type spray to which works on fiddly areas such grills.

    My 182 so far, a few Q’s

    My old car the one touch window worked with just the ignition on, would have sat there for hours in the garage looking silly if I hadnt asked on here, more so as the dealer didnt even think it should have them. I know now anyway lol. They have ordered my some floor matt clips so all is now well.

    My 182 so far, a few Q’s

    After picking my 182 yesterday im still a happy chappy, shame the weather is still so poor. car seems great apart from some minor issues. Car came with the carpet floor mats but no fixings that go in the floor and allow the matts to stop moving around. Mats look a bit odd with 2 holes in...

    Cleaning products

    Have a read of this. http://forum.cliosport.net/display_topic_threads.asp?ForumID=6&TopicID=138293&PagePosition=1THREAD I would use a good shampoo to wash rather than TFR. Not a bad way if you want to start from scratch and strip everything of, but not really a once a week process.

    If the swirls are not deep they will polish out. Danger being If the person doing the machine polishing is not very good things may just get worse. I would have refused mine too if it had been like yours. It was so dull and gloomy this morning I was dreading seeing mine in the sun. If they do a...

    1 Day to go

    I never managed to clock up many miles as it annoyed me I was driving around in the rain. Had 9 miles on the clock now has 30. Stopped raining after lunch so I decided to wash it and tuck it away. Previous to this my new car looked well used, and it had looked so nice in the valet bay...
