    Ollie's 172 Cup... 'cause silver can still be cool.

    Good evening CS ;) Fresh photos. After getting home this afternoon, I decided to give the cup a well deserved clean; it hadn't been done since just before FCS, so it had a lovely layer of dust/dirt making it look dull and tired. I often forget how nice iceberg can look with a bit of work...

    Loud backfires, loss of power at low revs.

    So, just when all was going so well... :dapprove: I started the car this afternoon to find a possible misfire when low in the rev range; along with an awful 'blowing' / 'spluttering' type noise heard from the exhaust. There's very little power low in the rev range, then a sudden surge of...

    Muc-Off Ubershine

    Afternoon! I thought I'd write a short review of a product I've used for the first time today; Muc-Off Ubershine shampoo. A couple of days back I was asked by a mate to give it a go, as his place are currently/thinking about selling it. First thing to notice, the 'subtle' bright pink...

    Well I went out this afternoon with the intention of giving the cup a detail of sorts, and getting some winter protection on there. I wasn't sure whether this is best in clio media or the detailing section, so apologies if it's best placed elsewhere ;) Started, as usual, with the ph neutral...
